[coolcruiserfj40]

hey im getting ready to cut the rear out, can you guys post up some of the things youve done asfar as cutting the rear fender

How much are you needing to cut? If you look close at mine you can see how bastard of a job the trimming is but it kind of fits

I am still on the fence, but i think i will keep the Cruiser Lights and just cutback on the fender like TX did

 

[coolcruiserfj40]

i plan to take it back as far as i can, thanks for the pics and thread

 

[coolcruiserfj40]

this is kinda what i was thinking, by following the inside of the blue tape just a thought for now

so what do you guys think of those lines?

mine is similar, but don't keep the back line that verticle....angle it in to the center of the tub more....

you "might" be able to just keep the Toyota tag and the 4wd tag....

I'd say kick the angle of the rear of the cut out more. I think it may look goofy with it being so vertical. Try and recreate the original lines just pushed back 6 or 8 inches.

This is how mine ended up:

Mine needs to be cut up a little higher but you can get some idea of the line.

Pics

Here is what I did to mine. I don't like severe angles. I like for them to have a little arc to them.

how much would i gain if i cut my wheel wells out and redid them like yours?

 

[OnTheSpot]

I think it will look fine.

You might consider curving the bottom corner near the bumper a little bit. I think it might make the cut flow better.

5" or so..
