Cut Fender Thread

Are those 33s with no changes to suspension? I have a 2.5 BB installed and don't want to look like a roller skate if I trim my fenders and still have 33s.

I cut mine freehand with a Dremel. Could look better by cleaning up the cuts. Dremel melts the plastic and leaves a rough cut. Whats the tip to getting the door edge trim to stick? For the life of me, I couldn't get it to stick on mine. Used it on my '08 JK with no problems though. Stuff flew off on the highway. Looked good with the door edge trim, but in the one pic you can see how the rough cut looks like crap.

Nice rig,i used adhesive I bought at AutoZone or kragen auto parts don't remember. It's a clear adhesive ran a bead under the fender between trim and plastic fender use your finger. Also ran adhesive between fender and the structural plastic where fender rest's hope that helps.

Thanks. Autozone is where I bought the door edge trim. I didn't use any extra adhesive on it though, just heated up the existing glue that is inside of the door edge trim. I'll have to try something like that.

Just don't buy the cheap stuff from Amazon because as soon as the temps hit 90+ it starts to melt the glue and fall off.....I'm in the process of removing mine[emoji17]

The only thing I'm not happy with is this area next to the grill View attachment 215259
I'm either going to paint it black or cut that piece off. I've seen some cut off and other that didn't. Mine isn't attached to anything for now. Thoughts anyone ?

Hey guys I'm thinking about trimming my fenders. Have any of you had any issues with the stability in the fenders from the wind while driving on the highway?

You're thinking too hard haha. They're attached very well with the clips. They won't come off unless you hit a tree on the trail or something
