Yeah that definitely works for more approach angle, but for more flex room I would go to the bottom of the winshield washer tank on the driver side and then measure and cut the passenger side to match, just my opinion. Probably easier than taking your washer tank out or relocating it, maybe.

Be careful with that logic. If that is your hope I would research online to find the measurements for the bushwackers and cut the same, otherwise you could cut too much and not even the bushwackers would fit.

Cut too much? lol Even that's a simple fix.

Pick-N-Pull and grab yourself some new(to you) fenders. = $50 pair
and try again.

True you could do that, then look like a cheap idiot rolling around with mismatched body panels, but hey hack it up man. Don't try to do things right the first time.

never said you should try to do it right the first time.
just saying there is no need to worry if you mess it up too much cause there is always a fix. and most of the time always a way to try again.

there has been plenty of times i rolled thru the junk yard and found perfect matching body panels, down to the faded paint job. worse case scenario gets one thats close and repaint it.

Thoughts? Locations? Availability?

Friday is the only day no good for me this week
