    I'm not sure if I am overthinking this, but would appreciate some input from those who have done the install. I watched the video of homeboy's dadand him making the front bumper cuts, and I have the instructions too..

    I'm a bit hesitant to start cutting though because pelfreybilt instructions say to take fenders off (which I did) and video has his fenders on so I can't get a great look at where the cut hits the wheel well. I am totally OK undercutting and finessing the finish later - but I really don't want to overcut at some weird angle and screw everything up. Any suggestions? keep measurement to ground the same at the front fog light tape area as it intrudes into the front bumper, and same measurement at the wheel well (would this help)? Should I use a level?

    Thanks in advance!
