Cutting front fender
 
1 Attachment(s)
Need to cut my fender to fit my bumper on my XJ but there are some type of supports that are in the way. My neighbor says they are headlight supports and I shouldn't remove them but I think I need to put my bumper on also if I do cut the supports what do I do with the horns?

Here's pic of what I'm trying to explain

Also how do I cut it and is it safe to cut the plastic fender flares without them shredding/flying everywhere and hurting some one

My supports are gone, no problems here

How did you go by removing them? Did you just remove all the bolts and took them off or did you cut them? Also what did you do with the horns?
