I hear ya on the rust thing. When I put mine on, I use manual metal nippers and a metal drill, but the thing I read to install them suggested that i get like model paint and brush on primer on the bare metal so it wont rust but i've not done it because i was planning on painting my car soon after.. which i dint but they still havent rusted!!!! i recently primed the entire fender and ofcourse i took the fender indicators out and sorta spreyed on the edges of the metal but for a car your not going to paint i would suggest the model paint thing. your most likley not going to see it behind the light unless ofcourse it was like my test fender and you cut it to big lol

 

i heard metal nippers are messy like they make the metal all lumpy and not very clean

 

yes, you're correct about the nibblers, but they're good for people that are scared of power or air tools such as saws and grinders. plus people aren't very good at judging when to let the metal cool while cutting or it will burn the paint or flake it.

 

ya it is very rough on the hands when you get the shavings on them and i have seen ones that the metal turns out wavy but i dint get that with mine not that ive notice any ways

 

ya like i have an extra heat shield from a stock exhaust manifold....i used that to practice before making my cuts

 

Looks good, cant wait to put mine on, i bought JDM fenders because i just want to be the same height and
that rust isue. But i bought the wiring from Streetlightz.
Just seeing this makes me want to take a day off and work in my baby.

because you're scared to cut out your fenders...sorry, i thought it was self explainatory.

 

Yea, cutting the fenders and harness......ill the plug and play way out, call me what you may.
But i give props to anyone who does the other road, its just not me.
