Most current picture taken today at the races. Yes the rear is sagging because there was 3 people sitting in the back.

Now you should fiberglass those edges to get rid of the sharp metal. Plus it looks good

Beat the ******* **** out of it and make it flush. Should look good then. I just cut around all of it with a angle grinder. Then filled in the gap With black caulking haha worked like a charm and looks good

I liked them in person the last time I saw them. If I did that to my Jeep I just wouldn't like having the jagged metal so I'd try and find a way to hide it.
