Jeeze what a good idea (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I decided to pound on my rear fender lip on the driver side. Thinking that like JonA I could get a small flare going withouth jacking up the paint.....Um NO..

Instead I got a BUNCH of really nice cracks. So naturally I thought shit, how much will this cost/how mad will Meranda be.

To make matters worse that side has BODY FILLER around the wheel opening. Naturally that was a BIG (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif)


BUT, on the bright side, I now have a pretty good looking flare on the drivers side. Just have to do the other side now.

AND my father and I will do the body work, because like usual the old timers know their shit. And he thinks we can match up the color to a "won't even notice it uless your looking for it" level.


335's here I come. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/thumbup.gif)

If I recall the pictures correctly, Jon wasn't exactly concerned about "jacking up the paint".

I don't think the knife would have helped much if the fender already had bondo in it.
