Really, it's pretty much fool proof! I was pretty nervous to get started and even nervous half way through. But its very simple, slow steady hand while cutting (I used a jig saw and it worked extremely well) and follow Red's original post. I had his post up on the puter just in case and did refer to it a couple of times mid way throughout the project to get the inner well liners cut right. I'm extremely happy!!!!

Default Here we go

I got a set of flares from a guy on the forum wed. I got them cut and ready to paint today. I'm going to use Duplicolor Bedliner tomorrow and hopefully put them on tomorrow evening I'll post pic's when I get done.

I just did the trim. It's been pretty warm up here and tried a thought. I used a utility knife. After the first score along the tape that I used as a guide. Six more passes the fender was off. I will be cutting the rear fenders here soon along with the front bumper. Will have more pics when done.

Thanks Red, and everyone! The hardest part was getting my saw on the Fender, but after the first cut it's all good! Came out Great! I love it. I hated those fat fenders. I cut a little too much on the front inner liner and have some modding to do there to keep the Florida mud out. But she is ready for some 35's now !
