Ali side panels

Following on from the tips on cutting ali --

At the point of putting the side panels on - in two pieces . Have people used an edge setter and also what about this joint at the top and bottom rail-

Thanks , Phil

Can't help you much - I 'borrowed' a friend's 2-ton professional sheet metal bender!

(didn't half work well, too...)

Sorry I can't help, I've not got that far yet, still finishing the chassis.

No I didn't use an edge setter, just overlapped the front one over the back one. Looks OK to me, although my car's for driving not sitting and looking at!
