Tony - I had no idea that body sheet metal was that thin. I really thought I was in the ballpark with 1/8", but i can see your point. Maybe I'd be better off with scraps, but I thought I was doing good with bare metal - no paint to mess things up. But now that I think about it, the fender lip is more like 1/16", not 1/8", and I guess that's more the ballpark.
cmartin - I'll give your technique a try. Thanks!
