    Cut cut, chop chop. I went a little different route with the fenders.

    Hey now! It's basically the same concept with stock flares vs. the bushwhackers...

    Nice part is he does not have to drill a shitload of holes to mount them - just reuse the stock ones.

    I was thinking about going this route but I wanted the flares to cover the tires more.

    Great work BTW! ;)

    Does your tire contact your front bumper at all?

    Not yet but I havent had a chance to really stuff that tire. Fender are trimmed, pinch weld is flat, cab mount is chopped but it might have to go back another half inch and it looks like I will have to tub some of the innder fender.

    would a 1" BL do the trick? :confused:

    Anthony seems to think that's the key...

    If I can make my truck a full time toy & not my DD I'll go the BL route w/ 35's...

    I just can't see cutting any further than I already have. :eek:

    need a 5 lug for a beater... :pout:

    Great looking truck!
    Did you keep the stock plastic fenderwell liners? Would you mind taking a closer picture of the fender flares installed on the truck? I'd just like to see how much sheet metal you cut out of the fender and how it looks behind the flare. I'm planning on doing the same thing. Thanks

    I can take some closer picture this afternoon. I ditched the fender well liners. Its not as clean as some of the other fender flare modifications from other members but I like the way they have turned out. There is only one small issue that I am working to fix and that is the flares are a little flimsy with how much I cut off and the fact that I didnt bond the bottom of the flares back together.

    Not in the near future. It came down to the budget I had for this part of the build and what I actually use my truck for.

    Spent the day at Fiesta Island today. Flares are about 90% complete. I eventually chopped 4 inches off of the flare. One of the pictures shows the flare. May not be as clean as it can but I like it the way it is.
