I always liked those led reflectors. You gonna hook them up to the turn signals for fun?

I hate wiring... I will go the simple route and just have them on with headlight/parking lights!

Looking good....you gonna put some mesh in that fender? Are you gonna tuck the wheels up front?

More than likely gonna fill in the gap with sheet metal, I don't want to deal with rocks coming through and I don't think open vent would work as well. Tucking for sure. I Don't do the whole stretch/poke thing, it would only lead to banged up fenders, even on air.

Loving the strategy the shop is taking for this one.


If you poke, set your perches so that when you're aired out, you protect the lip. My fenders can never touch my lips, though its about 1mm from being able to do so

Maybe there are downsides to this method but its worked so far for me. I'm just the new guy though.

Thanks Stew. I know it can be done with little heartache and can protect the fenders for the most part, I think i am just stubborn and want to tuck to air out a little lower too haha. Since i dont do crazy stretches (255/35 on my front 11" and 275/35 on my rear 12") it wouldnt work out as beautifully as say your setup that at least looks like it rests fender between tire and wheel lip (bravo). If i understand your advice correctly it would mean i would be driving on less-full bags though, right? I lowered my coils a lot just so i can drive on stiffer bags, i like the feel of it better oddly enough haha.
