Though I posted pics, woops. Used a sawzall. Probably gonna go buy a belt sander to straighten out the edges, if you look closely they're slightly wavey. Ironically, the straightest flare was the one I spent the least time on. I copied serverapurpose measurements (https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...s-here!/page11), except I added an inch on the front and didn't taper the back of the flare, and went 3.5" on the back.

to make the edges strait i took a piece of 2x4 maybe about 8" long and put a half a sheet of sand paper on it with staples on the ends to hold it in place. it worked perfect for me to sand and straiten them out. i guess i could run down and take a pic...
