    Ah yes, one of the most popular way people cut their car up for overfenders. Well in this video we go over measuring, marking, and cutting out the metal. And we find out just how much weight it saves!

    You cut a good piece of quarter panel off the 240. What is wrong with you?

    Also, what I'm thinking for myself that might give you some ideas that can give me some idess, you could extend your wheel well to meet flush with the outside of the new fender and seal the seam with seam sealer or panel bond. And if you panel bond all the way around to secure the overfender to what remains of the actual quarter, in addition to or in place of rivets, you can make it air tight. I've been giving this some thought. But if there's a major flaw in what I'm thinking I'd love to know before I'm too far into it

    I've been debating on doing this but want to know cons besides the smoke issue. Lrb speed makes good interior panels I already have installed with double sided foam strips to help seal the interior from the outside. That back portion is what I want to see covered...so I can copy. Good work.

    @r3drocket659 Před 5 lety

    i understand what your trying to accomplish but, the amount or structural rigidity vs weight loss is in negative. you could have gone about it in a different way and kept most of the front of the quarter. that would accomplish your clearence and set it up for rear tube and fiberglass rear body. however, how else does some one learn to improve right?
