Few more updates.

Got the trunk trim piece ordered off ebay and installed.
Not sure why this was M.I.A., but it's all good now.

Before -



After -




Also figured out why my car would leak gas if filled up over 3/4 of a tank.
Turns out the previous owner had put a rubber grommet (cap) over the outlet of the stock fuel hat. This had deteriorated badly (see picture). So when gas was over 3/4 it would basically run out of this spot.





I took the time to cap this line outlet off on both ends with new grommets (caps).
I also installed a new hat to tank seal.
Since I dropped the tank, I went ahead and replaced the filler neck grommet also.

Works like a champ now!
Filled it up and NO MORE LEAKS!! Yay!

Here's a few more pics. Transmission jack works great for holding the tank and dropping it / reinstalling it!
