So.... when I cut out the rear section of my trunk pan for repair, I made a template for the little trapezoid reinforcement plates for the sway bar and... apparently threw it in the scrap bin and can't find it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Could anyone be so kind as to shoot the measurements of those little dudes and maybe the gauge of steel if you know it? I'll go with 18g. unless someone says different, but would like to get the dimensions right. Stole this pic from a recent thread of what I'm talking about:

Looks good! Thanks for posting the wrap up. I believe I made mine from 16 ga. at minimum then welded them up the same way as yours. Possibly with some weld spots around the perimeter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
