Got the cowl opened up, and the metal looks pretty good (aside from the ‘normal’ damage around the air hats). Also pulled the windshield – which came out all cracked (which is typical as well).

Test fitting the passenger side cowl patch. Just gotta ‘blast it, clean the edges a bit more, finish cutting out the bad stuff, then zap it down.

Test fitting the driver side cowl patch. I cut this one a little too long – oh well, better than too short. The ‘yard dawgs chunked it out a bit with their Sawz-All taking the front clip off. Gotta repair that before I get it in there for good.

After ‘blasting, repairing the bad spots from where the ‘yard dawgs cut through, and adjusting everything to fit, here we are just about ready to weld in. Just gotta grind smooth the assembly welds and glob on the seam sealer and we’re all set.
