Re: Interest for High rise(pre-runner style?) Fenders Fiberglass

Sandking, thanks for the pics of those, I've never seen them before.
It looks like they are maybe bolted on top of some cut out factory fenders, I'm guessing because of the bolt holes you can see in the fenders. Either that or they fabbed a mounting structure underneath.
Also those body lines on the front kind of match, but the profile of the lip does not.
It doesn't have the inner/reverse curve on top of the lip, nor does it have the beauty line towards the bottom of the lip.

I do like the transition from the lip to the grill, I've already thought about doing something like that for anyone running super-swampers etc.

I'm not knocking that fender design, molding composite materials isn't easy.
But I want my parts to be as close to factory as possible, including every little detail.
