floor pan replacement
i just wanted to know if it's ok to use sheet metal for replacing a floor pan piece.
here's what is being replace:
as you can see it has curves in certain places, could I use a mallet and hit the sheet metal against my old floor pan to make the same kind of shape? thanks for your help.

Re: floor pan replacement
you can buy whole new pans from Hawks and a few other places...

not cheap but it's always nice to start fresh.
