Re: rear tail light filler panels

if you can do bodywork like adding lights to a roll pan... than you should be able to cut a flat rectangle out of some sheet metal and weld it in the tail light hole. no need to manufacture a filler panel for that simple of a job, there's no curves or round corners.

i didn't plan on being the one to put the lights in the pan haha i'm not that skilled, was goin to buy one with lights already installed, but yah true it is pretty flat, but just thought there might be pieces already cut like there is for basically every other hole on these body's haha
