Is it actual metal? The flare/outside part is plastic, or do you mean UNDER the area where the mudflaps would "rivet" onto the flares? I cut mine so the pinch weld is exposed about half way up the inner splashguard/plastic and cut the entire inner portion of the fender flare plastics down as well.

I do have a lip of metal in there that could possibly get hit but I know my pinch weld takes more contact at speed than that thing does.

 

Yeah, like I said.. I think I need a second set of eyes.

I'd rather free up as much clearance as possible before finding out the hard way.

 

My landlord was around to sign for my lift kit delivery

But now I don't have a truck to put it on

 

Sorry... I couldn't help but actually laugh when I read that. haha

 

lol it's all good, I can't help but laugh about it myself

 

If you need something more than a utility knife I suggest a Dremel.

 

TC???

 

Really? Seems like those tiny cutting discs would just keep breaking.

I guess I don't have a ton of dremel experience to speak from.

 

$200 sounds like one hell of a deal!

 

They're pretty tough little bastards.


But as with anything similar to an angry hand grenade you're holding within 5' of your face: safety equipment sure makes the experience better!

 

Works great for detailed stuff. I have a bigger makita Dremel I cut the corners of mine with.

 

Do you have a picture of how much you cut off the corners?

 

They break

 

We aren't doing Alamo now

Nm

 

I want to go back so badly

 

Mine is probably a little different cause I'm 2nd Gen. Only a little pinch weld rub now. But I'm gonna hammer that shit out sometime. Trimming came out clean IMO

 

That was done with a Dremel?

Thanks for the pics!

 

The top half I did with the razor knife. The bottom section was being a bitch so I blue taped it and dremeled.

 

@MADSTEEZE if you use a dremel, for the love of god tape it. It will be so ugly if you don't.
