We decided to make this a three piece construction to keep from having to ship truck freight which on average costs around 200 bucks and goes up from there if we ship to a residence or if the truck needs a liftgate because the drop off point doesn't have a loading dock or if the recipient isn't home and the truck driver needs to return for a second delivery date...basically truck freight is a major PITA so we did our best to avoid it.
That body line comes grooved and flanged and predrilled so that people can choose to blend it or leave it standard and just paint it with that body line there. If people do decide to fill it there is no concern of cracking later as the hardware and flange on the back is the support and the filler (supplied) is just there to blend that line out.
We have been working on some very detailed instructions on how to blend that line for the DIYer...it is very easy!
I can't wait to see how it turns out for you mike!
