Unfortunately I don't have any photos handy, but the package tray cardboard makes a pretty handy template. Use it to transfer onto some cardboard, leaving everything long by an inch or so, then trial fit into car and trim as required. I left the front long, then had the metal shop brake a 90 degree bend so it "caps" the front piece. Use a piece of cardboard and trace/trim as required to fit the front of the trunk. Transfer on to legal thickness sheet metal, trim and install with pop rivets, seal with silicone. I can do a mean burnout and not get a lick of smoke in the cab.
