Trimming fender wells

What tool(s) did you use to trim your fender wells to prevent tire rub?

 

4" grinder and cut off wheels. Measure twice. Mark with grease pen. Tape off. And cut slowly. If you go too fast you will burn the paint. And remember= once its gone IT'S GONE. Then once cut use grinding wheel and make the cut look nice. TAKE YOUR TIME

 

And post pics

No, no, no, I'm sorry I meant the inner fender well.

 

The plastic? I just used a sharp utility knife to cut mine. Fresh razor blade cuts the plastic like butta.

 

I just used my little dremel. Worked like a charm.

 

the plastic inner fender wells... do you need them? mine are rubbing and falling down can I remove them and not worry about water/dirt/mud getting up there? thanks

 

Hey man. Did you ever get an answer on this? What did you do? I know the passenger side plastic is covering up the intake, but I'm just rubbing on the driver's side. Not sure if ripping that stuff out will mess anything up...

 

It's fine don't worry unless you live somewhere salty.

 

I drove without both of mine in for a long time and had no issues. I would, however, remove the plastic nose of the air intake under the passenger side fender well if you get a lot of rain / muddy conditions. It could potentially suck water in your intake.
