The yellow tape was an approximate line that i just stuck on and realized it was no where near straight. I did some rough measurements and applied wide masking tape so my pen would hit it. I layed the fender on its side with the fender flange flat on the floor. Found about a 10 inch 4x4 and drilled it at 8 1/2" to hold my felt tip marker, it worked great by just sliding it on the floor with the marker touching the fender. I welded a brace from front to rear for support while cutting. Took my right angle grinder with thin wheel and cut on the mark. Then I made a new inside flange..

The passenger side has the old wheel on it and it sticks outside the fender, driver side is more representative of the final look. Dave
