Today, I went to the local Caffeine&Octane show around 8am, just to drool over a couple hundred cars. When I got home with a slight bit more motivation, I decided to hammer out the two cuts in my passenger floorboard. Before: After: Good enough to allow me to weld it back...

Great job. Way to put in the overtime.

Which material- the intake pipe?

OK then. Comgrats.
