looks really nice and clean.
but imo 3/16 is overkill enough.
and you should have done the whole quarter panel.

but to each his own. and im sure itll do the job

He's Canadian, cut him some slack. Besides, he's planning lots of mods when he has the time, we can laugh at his stuff in due time...

Downside that I see to this design is the fact that while this is stiffening the lower quarter, if you come off a rock and land on this is just going to fold the sheet metal right above it. I like the idea and the workmanship looks top notch. Just a thing to consider.
