I did some into my HZ a few years ago and found that they really only fit properly in one place due to the shape of the guard. This lined up with the pics I could find at the time and looked right once done.

did you have any drama's with warpage?? i have asked around and a lot of ppl dont want a bar of it beacause apparantly it is a c-bomb of a job due to the panel warping to easily??
did you do it youself, or get it done at a panel shop and how much??
cheers mate

shouldn't be too hard mate, just got slow tack tack and tack let it cool, tack tack tack cool. Jsut keep going then grind back and fill when finished. You shouldn't have too much trouble. It sonly whne you go for long runs of weld that you get alot of heat and warpage happenns
