i just took off my stock fender flares and i was gonna trim the fenders, but im not sure where the best place to trim them is. i was thinkin maybe where the upper edge of the stock flare was, but i dont know if it was too much. what would you all reccommend?

 

Actually thats what most people end up doing, they use the stock fender as a template and cut off right above where it was, I've seen alot of ppl use blue painter's tape(or masking tape if your Jeep is blue) to mask off the area they don't wanna cut.

 

I know when I trim mine I will simply use a method I have seen and trace where the stock flair sits and trim just below it. You can use either the blue or green painters tape and some news paper to protect the rest. The rear you have to use the tuck and fold method.

Couple of writeups for the read fenders..
