what is the correct way to trim fenders and still make them look good, like the factory openings?

This is how I trimmed my fenders and it came out looking like it came from the factory. But the rear fenders are a pain to cut because they is a inner wheel well so you have to cut through metal twice as thick.

Hey I had a 3 inch high speed cutter that made a nice clean cut. Yes I keep a plasma cutter in my back pocket. Who has a plasma cutter. SERIOUSLY

i used a air cut off wheel worked great. I took the front fender up to the crease right were the stock flares end.

and the back i did the cut and fold. didn't turn out quite how i liked (covered it with pacer flexy flares) put that black door molding stuff on the front.

i have seen rear fenders whacked way out. but from what i gathered you shouldnt do this because the outer rear quarter panel will seperate from the inner wheel well (idk)

but do as you wish. cut and fold just worked well for me i went to lil lip out on the rears,not all the way to the flat.
