What tools are a must? I have a cutting wheel, grinder, and a bigass vice. How can I bend the plate w/o special tools? What guage DP should I get if their is more than one option? What is the best way to fasten? Rivets--what size, or bolts? BTW I am going to paint this stuff black to match jeep, cause I don't want to build a death-ray reflector.
