C) Some of us actually have the skill set to make our own stuff.

D) It’s fun ! Most car guys “get it”. Very satisfying working on your own car and making something that is to suit your particular car that fits, works and looks good. Way more satisfying than clicking “add to cart”.
Excellent response and thank you very much for the extra info. My preliminary plans included extending/replacing the 4 bolts you did as well for support of the panel
