this is a pick of the backside, shows the frame made of wire coat hangers cut to fit and soldered together, then covered with a wire mesh and fiberglassed to the stock frame, which was cut to make room for the deck to be at an angle.

all in all i think it came out really good considering it was a first try for anything of this type before, maybe a custom kick panel or a door panel is next, but still itchy from the glass so maybe not, but thanx for lookin
