Put some braces at an angle and some 3/16th plate on the butt joints to keep everything in place, after all that work I didn't want it to move and between the braces and the diamond plate I felt comfortable welding up the frame.

painted it with argent silver as suggested by members on the forum, They were right, looks like it just came out of the dealer, I like it

Wow! Amazing job WhippinSaw! You'd never know it was not like that originally, looks like you just got the dealer to install it! Really love the paint choice too!
Looks perfect

Congratulations.
