[QUOTE="Qaddiction, post: 453859, member: 18430"] Had some time available this weekend. First I removed the factory sliders. While doing so I started thinking again! I thought I should just go ahead and start trimming the back wheel opening. Grabbed the Sawzall and started hacking away. Not sure if it's enough, but it's a start. I sanded down the rough edges and hit it with some paint. That allowed me to justify mounting the back fender flares.
