Did a little finishing to make the bezel fit flush. I have a little more welding to do to fill some of the gaps I missed. Then I welded up the holes in the fender, and pulled the dent in the door out and welded up those holes. I put only one nut to hole the bezel and stuck the tail pipe in there to see how it will look from a distant. It's only held in with vacuum hose wedged in to hold it in place. When welded to the exhaust pipe it will fit perfect.
