The car is sposed to have 3 at the top and 1 in each corner in the wing. Then 4 underneath.. They screw into the rear panel. Whip the bumper off because if what your saying is right then the cars rear panel has been cut which is a big no no

i am having a chat with a company about the floor pan but the other bits like the rear panel and the rear panel suport (bit that holds the latch pin in place) i can get easely and pritty cheaply. other than that im now pulling off that tar crap, decided to use hammer and chisel then put the thinners on it to get rid of the resedue.. should be easy after that.. also been reading up on not having to weld serten places (will weld the floor in place lol or use pop rivits to save a little weight and bond it into place aswell.) loads of different bonding methods used that are classed as ok by repteble companys
