Yeah the hangers were the hardest part. They still aren't completely right but since I put the tips on I don't think you can tell as much. I also used a huge pry bar at my dads house and tried to bend the crap out of the drivers side to get it to hang lower. I'll get it eventually.

Use sandpaper and a wine bottle or something
similar to sand the cutout semi-round.

Keep the ol cell phone handy when working under the stang alone.
