Thanks guys!

I actually got the rears done this last week. Much harder to mount but I think it turned out great in my opinion.

I can get more pictures later, but as of now they are not powder coated

those are awesome.
i was at Tractor Supply the other day and had this idea but wasn't sure how it would turn out.
looks like i might be trying my hand at something similar.

Great job

and as the Hot Rodders say ... "steel is real".

I opened up the fenders on my off road trailer to accommodate larger wheels by slicing them at the bends and then rewelding them they way you did. It's amazing how "floppy" they get before you reweld them. I love the way you sliced and narrowed yours to streamline them into the body. Your method of mounting makes good sense too. Very well done and they look great.
