Need pics of cut comp corners..and/or rear quarter panel protection ideas...

.Well...The one ton swap done..Running these 39's and having less worries about breakage....Harder trails are apparent...Well..I kind of tore up one side..it was all rusty anyway..protected by diamond plate..lol...I needed to do this long ago!


Well the time has come to figure out something tough and on the cheap...I would love the dove tail effect..but hard to do with family cage and full rear seat...So..Just looking for some ideas...
Thanx in advance...~Clint~

My rear 1/4 Panel lower corners are 1/4" steel plate... They can take hits and hold their shape on their own..
