I like these fenders and the bumper. I think its a little bit special than the standard. How did you make them. Maybe you got some pics.
I think about change my fenders like this.

How many "traditional" ordinary builds have you done to date? I'd say a few, so go for it, it will be amazing in the end, with all the bells, whistles and paint and you can say you broke trends, traditions and taboos and came up with a new style, a heavier, more flowing, almost racing look. Be a sheppard and not a sheep. Heheeee  |
Thanks guys it is not really much of a coincidence that the fenders and bumper all line up with the same curves and lines. The fenders are modified King hauler fenders. First I took two sets of King fenders and side panels and put them through the table saw and cut off the out side half inch and glued the four pieces together to make two ( a left and right and a left and right) then I cut off the left over wedge section from a left and right and glued them on the opposing fenders so they would stay strait with the taper of the hood. When I glued the two halves of the fenders together it left a bead all the way around the fender and I used the inside bead to line up the wedge piece to keep the arch of the fender. and the bumper was cut to fit a stock King hauler.
