Part 29 of the R8 Rover 216 GTi Twincam restoration vlog.
Couldn't think of a catchy title for this video. Suffice to say it involves hammering a feature swage line or 'step' into a patch panel made from a pattern-part outer sill that lacked this important feature.
Long story short - I had bought a pattern-part outer sill from Ebay earlier this year and although it had the correct lip and panel edge, it lacked the subtle stepped edge that the original car has. So I had to replicate it.
As per previous videos with loud power tools, I've added a You Tube music track as no one likes the sound of angle grinders or bashing metal.
