The lip is not welded, just bend as Tikal48 mentioned (thanks Tikal48) but in my case the lip too much rusted to use again.

I did ground the edge off and will try to weld the seams together.

I did also buy a damping material (Dynamat) would it be a good idea to put inside of the doors right now?

Bottom is open for easy access....

What do you think? ....



Left door bottom patch is ready to weld in.



Right door speaker hole patch is also ready to weld in.



Right door bottom patch is almost ready, thinking about pressing a recces in.
