Well done Paul. The "Do as much as possible yourself" approach is very satisfying, as well as frustrating. I can see why some cars have round head pads though. I have been learning welding, and so far have been lucky enough that my work so far has little visibility. "Robust but ugly" would sum it up. But I am getting better, and moving along the curve, so have just bought a used MIG welder off fleabay so I can improve on thinner material. I have just found a further use for the leather I bought for the failed moccasin project - I have bought some of those super strong mini magnets, and together with an old steel ruler, will make a wall mounted kitchen knife rack that does not risk dropping super sharp knives on you - no stitching, no welding required, haha.
