Tailgate Panel Part Deux!

So, I made a tailgate panel to cover up the dents and because there are no Saleen panels available anymore. I made this one about a year ago out of 1/16" ABS:

Problem was, the panel was too thin! Kept warping whenever the weather changed and corners would pop off. I decided a month ago to make a better one and used 1/8" ABS this time. I decided to be a little creative since the last one was a little boring. I had some slats cut and glued them on top of the ABS sheet and trimmed it out with some edging I used for my side splitters. I think it came out really good:

Unfortunately, I lost Jack Roush's signature on the back, but maybe I can get him to sign this one too
