GP Fenders. For our cars. I am pretty sure about that anyway.

Either way. Yes you cut it out.. Of course dont take more than you have too. You* should be able to tell what the max to cut is. When you hit the unibody you have gone to far

Not if your handy with a welder. If you have to take off so much that you can see into the chassis you need to be able to seal it shut again. You lose alot of strength cutting it up.

You should do what is posted in that link. Unless you are running 20" rims and slamming your car.. lol

nice!  thx.. I needed that.. I'll be doing that then.  
I'm going to run wider rims.. but not 20s..  I'm going to keep the correct tire radius..

I can't slam w/ scc springs

I'll post pics next week

why not just mold them on so you dont ruin your car forever

or fit brackets on the inside and at worst bolt them to the rear or something
