Camtech how do I fix the overlay when it comes into contact with the side panels? It rubs back and forth. Don't want to glass it or bondo. Really don't like it separated either. I like the contact look. No gap. But am afraid it will rub the paint off over time. Have any suggestions
As I recall, this particular step requires you to have the side panels installed while bonding the overlays to the tank. Need to use bonding adhesive that gives you some time to move things around. Some clear rubber bumpers on the side panel sockets during bonding will give you a symmetric (and necessary) gap. If something is rubbing glass to glass after the tank overlays are in place, you're screwed....
Installation requires attention to side panel gap spacing, levelness across the top, and symmetry of the overlays up against the front tank mounts. I'd suggest using flat wooden paint sticks to keep things lined up along the top and front. In hindsight, I would also think about embedding the tank sender/pump wiring and vent hose under the overlays. That will give you some options on the dash panel...
