front fender with trim holes?

Post by BigRedTruck »

I can't find these anywhere. they all seem to have a ridge molded into the panel in place of where the trip is supposed to be. can these be modified or will I have to go to a yard?

There is no difference between fenders that originally came with trim and those that didn't....except for the drilled holes. If you can find good fenders, you can easily drill the holes out. I don't understand what "ridge" you're talking about. :hmm:

Oh, OK. Well, as stated above, aside from the drill holes, there are no differences. So any fender will work, you just might have to drill the trim holes as needed along the crown of the bump.

I think the holes were punched. :D

I work in a metal stamping plant. You'd never get one of those presses into the average shop.
Drill the holes. :wink:
