MajorJones's Custom Fenders

[Hasbro]

No, The body line is only slightly pushed in at the end there. I will hammer it smooth and pull it some more. The front bumper will eventually also be a couple of inches wider. I bent the 1 1/4" flat edge of the fender to the same angle of the curved fender. I muscled the curved portion (the whole fender) out about 1 1/2" so the angle doesn't change, instead the whole fender sort of puffs out if you get my meaning. I tried to keep the fender at the door line in instead of pulled in case I want to cut that fender section to push it in several inches for air flow (Gurney flap).

This will be enough for a 3" wider track and the extra tire width, about 2" each side iirc.

Appreciate all the pics! It's nice to see someone else doing fender work and you seem to actually know what you are doing, lol!

Honestly, I'm just using what I know from work and a little bit from the internet. Compare to what i do i work sometimes, this is pretty easy. I make interior bin compartments for major airliners from scratch to finish product. So, laying fiberglass, using filler, and prepping for paint is an everyday thing for me.
