getting cut up

[SrATEX]

Well I cried a little today. :cry

but i cheered up when i realized it will help me.

got pass side 90% done. need to take the grinder back over it and smooth it out and trim a little more up near the top.

first time using this

had to have some good music though while doing it

here is where i started crying cause i was losing good sheetmetal

the trimmed pieces

decided to start attacking my fender mounts to get ready to mount the sliders too. gotta finish working on this one too

decided not to do a full cut of the fenders because as of right now i have plenty of up and down travel. i can always trim more if needed but it is suffiecent for now, becaue the areas that hit with the slightest flex are gone, at least on pass side.

tomorrow i will do the drivers side and finish with the fender mount tabs. then start prepping for paint...got 8 of the rattle cans i need so far, need to check wally world to see if they have anymore.

well even though no one is paying attention. all fenders are cut, all mirrors, badges, and tire carrier is off. truck is sanded, and im waiting for it to dry so i can start the paint

Hey SrATEX, how long did that take? I'm probably going to start cutting on mine next week for the flares. Looks good so far man.

took all of an hour probably for the cutting i did. I wasnt trying to be perfect, didnt cut the whole thing, and didnt care about the paint so not long.
