ok here is the pics. this was a very big project. i do not recommend it to anyone with a life. this was basically for fun only. i have 3 rear sub frames so i figured hey what the hell. starting weight. 22.2lbs. ending weight 11.4lbs. J/K. 20.0 lbs. i got my goal of 2.2lbs off.

this is how it will go on the car. i could smooth it out and make it nice but honestly i dont really care. it is not perfect but its good enough for me.
