Just vee-notch the areas where the bolts will be in the way. I got mine from a VW supplier. Eight bucks for an awful lot.

The only places you need to notch other than where the bolts are in the way is where there are sharp curves in the rear fender (if you are bothering to do the rear fenders).

"(if you are bothering to do the rear fenders)"

Carl is correct: if you are unnecessarily using fender welt in pickup bed fenders.

Pickups had no rear fender welt; however, panel-body trucks had rear fender welt.

Won't the fender welt dampen vibration. My 49-3100 had them front and rear only the rear has been painted so far.
