where did the bottom of you old fender go? by the door.

also, is that flare stock in the fender, underneath those plastic fender flares?
I have not taken mine off before and I am taking off the plastic trim that runs the length of the truck and debated taking the flares off.

She cut the bottom of the fenders to clearance the tires.

Yes that flare is stock. My $0.02 is leave the flares on but pul the side mouldings off. I personally like that look.

Yah, they are stock under the fender flares, if i kept the flares it would look stupid with them cut as much as it is for clearance for the tires. lol and personally i dont liek the look of fender flares.

but yea i think im going to weld a peice to extend the fender, but still so there is enough clearance for the tires, because i dont liek the look of this
that much.

If I weld a piece on there and then underneath the fender to avoid rusting i think it will work, plus there is still enough clearance for the tires. But eventually Im gonna have to cut them again because im putting 44s on soon. Along with a body lift.
