Take your time and mark every hole, use a punch for the bolts to go through. Check with third gen, he may have the good welting like original. Ken

Besides making the bolt holes, you may need to make some V cuts on the flat portion when having to do a curve.

If you use the plastic tubing style you can insert, aluminium, brass or similar tubing inside and shape the ends of the welting to suit.
