before and after
I finally got around to removing my taillight and filling in the fender. I used my 2 2 inch chrome spikes to add to the character of the rear end. now i got the shock mount plate mount and run my turn signals as my running lights, brakes lights, and my signals. after some welding, grinding, and paint I think it came out pretty decent. That and i had to fix the dent that was hidden under my factory plate mount

thanks, i was undecided between cutting up the rear fender or filling it in. After seeing fenders go for $500 that are just filled in, i figured i would try it and if i didnt like it i could just cut it up.

I will say it might make the whole process alot easier if welded from the back side of the fender. I did alot of grinding of welds and smoothing to make it finally work. At least the next one i do I will try it from the back side and see how much different the process goes

I though the same thing after I finished mine.
