Fender Trimming

[Front Range 4x4]

Thanks again guys for the inspiration. I couldn't decide which way to go, like weak-link or like me_tu05, so I did one side each way.

I just did the cutting & bending so they aren't done but they're well on their way.

LOOKIN GOOD

That does look really nice.

BTW, if you chop it up and end up with a wrinkly fender you can always bolt on some fender flares. There are plenty of smaller ones that give a nice touch. I think older pathfinder flares have a very similar line as the 60 series fenders.

Finished it up today, very happy with it and not anywhere as hard as I thought it would be. Thanks to everyone for the help and inspiration.

Psst, Elliot. If you're ever looking for some people that wheel come on over to Front Range 4x4 where we do lots of runs. You could even bring the Cherokee (unlike some other Denver clubs)

I like the lines of a chopped fender but would love to see it done to look like factory. I know it would require a lot of time and energy but to me worth it.

Hi jack: what wheels are those? I like em' !

You just need to find someone with a fender roller to put that look back on after chopping. Any custom body shop could do it if you're willing to pay. Another thought would be welding/splicing what a couple people cut off.

My wheels? I have no idea, got them with 35" tires for $300 on Craigslist. I'm guessing they're old American racing.

Looks better than mine!!!! Hope they last longer too.

Looks really slick Chris!

Now I am tempted to do that to mine!!!!!

I like it!

Go for it Marco! I was very reluctant to take an angle grinder to mine but that's all I had. It's not the most sophisticated tool but once I made that first cut it was pretty easy and plain old fun!

Oh yeah, and I don't think I'll have any rubbing now either.

Sexy. This is coming up on my list of things to do.
