Thank you guys for your coments. Helps me stay motivated. Yeah the cup replacement sucked. "If i knew then what i know now"... The picture of the cup installed and welded was tghe frist of two. I just lined up the cup to the fender. Then when i decided to check things it looked horrible with the grill and bumper in place, i started to notice it looked different than the drivers side and i had not even thought about my inner fenders yet. So it got cut off and, the second time i had the inner fender, and the grill installed to while i tacked it in place and there was a gap between the cup and the fender to fill the second time around. and i hear what you are saying about the filler, it is tough on the contour lines i havent even started sanding it yet
