Now that i know that works, it is time to go the extra mile and do a complete 1 piece wrap around with laser cut and bent tabs.
I will pop-rivet it together once they are all in place.
a nice little 90 on all the tabs.
Not gonna lie. It was kinda a bitch to get them in there. At least the first set. It got easier as i got to the more open area.
Aluminum pop-rivets to close the deal.
