so im currently cutting the fenders on the 92 and figured why not start a thread on the different ways some people trim there fenders.

so if you've chopped your fenders (without covering them in fender flares) then post em' up.


also, figured it would help some people see the different ways to trim fenders

lots of cutting lol

 

Im getting ready to trim mine, I like the looks of all the pics on here, good job fellas!

 

Plenty of room for 33x12.50's. Raw sharp edge has Door Edge Protectors available at Walmart and most auto parts stores. It's self adhesive and makes it look finished

 

my hacked up rig

Write up for the rear

Couple of mine cut and fold rear and just plain ole cut on the front.

 

What kind of tools did you guys use to get the cuts so nice and not hacked up looking?

 

patience.

you can do it with an angle grinder, a body saw(what i used), a saw-zaw heck even a dremel! its just all about taking your time

 

heres mine used a die grinder and small air saw i just need to pull the rear pinch weld together and seal it off

 

I was using an old power shear which worked great but the thing was old and dull so I starting using an angle grinder with a cut off wheel but it was a little difficult to make smooth corners with it.

I saw on here a guy made cuts all along his fender and just used a angle grinder w/ cut off wheel and hammered back the tabs that were left. That looked pretty good.

Thank you guys for this thread and the search tool. This will help me get my job done a lot faster.

I'll post picks when done.

 

I used tin snips and a sawzall. I cut and folded mine...
