Well I was only able to get one fender off before I had to run to dinner before they closed. It looks so mean!!! I'm thinking about painting it flat black and making it look like it jumped out of a Quentin Tarantino flick! I got some pics of my one fender but for some reason my phone doesn't want to send them to me. But I will get some good ones tomorrow when we finish it up and put my 29" super swampers on!!

yeah, she's not being entirely honest with y'all... I'm the one doing the cutting, and i'm also the one that's going to be changing the tires. it's a little rough, but it looks pretty bad@$$. i'm going to put some rubber tubing along the edge to protect the TSL SXs
