They basically cut the fender at the high radius point, and welded a 3" piece of spacer metal in between the two old sections. This will give you a flat spot unless you precurve the spacer metal. Running boards would have to be sectioned lengthwise to match so curves on fender and board still match. Pretty tricky metalwork unless you are a bodyman. You can purchase fibreglass fenders which are 2" wider than stock. Not sure how they handle the running board issue. | | |
