Need to trim the fenders....

[rpraterxj]

I am looking for some help to trim my front & rear fenders. I am tired of popping off the trim and making that horrible sound when I flex a little.

Anyone wanna help?

No time frame. No hurry, but it needs to be done.

I have no idea what to do or how long it takes.

All help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Robert

here is what i did with the front, i follwed the upper line that sticks out a bit.

rear is a bit tricky, you dont wanna cut past the pinch weld.
i made 15 vertical cuts and used a mallot and banged the metal in, basically rolled it in the fender.

Does not look too hard, just time consuming. Even though, I am still too chicken to try this without some assistance and guidance.

Not to mention, I do not have an angle grinder.

Thanks,

It takes courage to make the 1st cut, after that its nothin... you could use a jigsaw or a sawzall.. thats what i used for the rear.

:twak: read on mod tech all the threads about doing it: you're supposed to use either air saw (for sheetmetal) or metal shears or something like that.
