Trimming and Fender Flares

[FMExplorer]

Hey guys,
The new tires are requiring some minor trimming. maybe 1-1.5" of metal and some plastic. Can I efficiently do this with a grinder? Also - Flares to cover up the cutting. What's a good make that is flexible enough to stretch over the trim work? Will flares continue the tupperware line or should the rocker panel trim come off too?

Thanks

Jon

Are you any good at body work? Check out my web page and I have a couple pics of how we cut mine back.

If you cut it back you want them to look nice when you are done. You don't want it looking like some just hacked them up.

Take it to a body shop and see what they would charge you do to it. My dad recut the front parts on my tupperware to were it would fit back on when we drove it around town, but then I would take them off when four wheeling.

Then we bent the nurf bars and went to the rock sliders and the tupperware came off.

Make sure and cut it back plenty so when you are flexed it won't hit.
