I cut as far as I could with out going into the cabin, the plastic panels still work. The storage areas are still functional Fully sealed and airtight. At the upper part of the wheel Ark there is 21/8'" lip that the tire tucks into.Side by side against @Broski wheel wells. He def. cut more out and went further up than me. But I think I did pretty good for just eyeballing and freehand cutting it. I probably should have went a little more aggressive but I also have stuff inside the panels for storage. I might not have the same level of up travel as Broski and might hit the inside or need to bump more. I'm still toying with the idea of going 4" DOBI heavies and 30mm (in) spacer to net me at 5". I need to be at 5 or 6" with my DeltaVS 6' radius arms. I have too much caster right now for my 4" total lift. That might keep my COG a bit lower.
Yea mine isn't as pretty as his cut. My truck was bought beat and dented. It's going to get beat anyway. So nothing for me to cry over if its a little wavy. It's function over form is what counts!

And I am running a 21/2" bump stop extensions. The Gas tank filler tube also need to be modified.
