    Rear wheel well top panels

    Hi all, does anyone have a picture of the small origami aluminum panel installed on your Gen 3 car?
    I’m not having any luck solving the puzzle.

    Yeah, it's not real obvious. Does this help? I added some filler pieces to make them a little tighter around the roll bar.

    Doing final assembly and just fitted mine using Paul's pictures as a guide. I put bulb seal on the top part between the aluminum and the body. It seals it up better but I will be adding aluminum tape to finish the job.

    That helped a lot. Will install them with a bulb seal as well.
    Thank you!
