ree, it's very sturdy with 5 screws/wingnuts along the back and 1 side. You wouldn't want to put an anvil in there anyways, as the entire trim "floats" above the steel body underneath, and would definitely crack when you hit a large bump.
The bending is easy (aluminum). The drilling of matching holes (bracket and box) is more tricky. I drilled 2 end holes first on the box, press the box in place against the bracket, and mark/drill correspoding holes on the bracket. After you attach the bracket to the box on those 2 end holes, its easy enought to drill and attacht the other 3 holes, before reattaching everything to the truck.
For aesthetics, I will fabricate a "skirt" to cover the spacer.
