Anybody headed to go topless weekend at crystal beach this year? May 15-16. I'm headed up there with my wife and another couple and we're looking to see if anybody was interested in sharing a beach house.

We will be down there at least for the day Saturday.

I got one, don't know if I've got a blade that'd be any good for plastics though.

Might be better with a cutoff wheel. But I have a jigsaw you can use.

I did mine with a cutoff wheel... holy smokes there was molten plastic flying everywhere! Haha! Just a fair warning.

I did the ones on my '14 with a cutoff wheel. Just start a little inside your marked lines as you may get some meltage from the plastic. And yes. Wear glasses at least. That crap goes everywhere.

You're welcome to mine, I have a corded one, and a cordless (which Might be easier, it's a little lighter) depending on when you plan on doing it I wouldn't be opposed to supervising :beer:

San Luis is nice but not in for mudding there.... It's asking for corrosion to parts. But down for some fun in the sand

I avoid mud most anywhere I go! Right after any beach trip I park the Jeep in the driveway with a couple sprinklers underneath it.

Well, it's official. I am NOT qualified to cut fenders. Nope. I did a GREAT job on the under supports, but the fenders themselves are another story. I left some extra material on the fenders from where I want them to end up... but it's just awful, i didnt even start on the rears because the front came out so bad...

I need to employ a fender trimming expert who can duplicate Moby/Rubicat fenders, a stickler for symmetry, and will work for beer and good jeep company... seriously...

Dude, let Dave do it. Anybody that can cut there fenders at 2am and have them come out that good deserves a shot at it. Better yet, give him the pizza and shots first.
