so we all been here contemplating if we want to cut the fenders, or would i like it after i cut it hmmmm lol. well i finally choose to cut mine and i most deff like the outcome .
well from 1st to last as u can see start n finish . didnt do anything special as u can see as i looked at other threads i just did the same simple work. cut each lil section 1 at a time with my angle saw . then carefully cut as straight of a line i could until each fender was complete .

 

1st 2 pix are passenger , side same process and came out nicely i think and i love the new room and look. last 3 pix are the drive rear and also my stock end caps. i wanted to keep them so i trimmed them down with eyes view of the fenders and bolted back on for now .i enjoy my rear end caps and how they look as well after i trimmed them.. and more to come modds as i get time

 

I'm going to be doing the same but I've picked up bumper end caps from a pre 97 cherokee that don't connect with the stock flairs. You need to trim the rear caps a bit to clear the door but in my opinion these caps look way better without the flairs.

 

my rear end caps are cut down to exactly where i cut my rear flares. i wanted to keep my rear end caps to keep it clean i didnt like how the rear bumper looked without them
