Overlap with a joddle is the advice I had for rear quarters, I would use the same, less chance of distortion.

Did you have permission to knock the wall down between yours and the rented garage??
Can't see the rented garage owner being to happy if you did'nt?
Like your style though!

Bottom edge of grill is painted satin black and when I did my grill resto I painted all the silver with wheel silver. This is one of the most fiddly jobs.
All the info you need is here.

If you have brought the bolt kit with the big plastic washers for the top and bottom of the grill the bolts that come with the kit are 6mm short so make sure you have some other bolts. I e-mailed the place I got mine from and they didn't even reply to my e-mail.
