Inner front fenders

Easy question I think but I was wondering if the inner front fenders can or should be put on after I have the truck painted?

Re: Inner front fenders

Basically, it's a preference thing and how much your willing to spend or how much work you want to do.

If the sheetmetal looks good on the inside fenders or wheel wells you could leave them in. But, if it was me, I'd take them off and take them to the shop to be painted or whatever else needed to be done to them separately. Then I'd install them myself after it was painted.

Re: Inner front fenders

What I did was I bought brand new ones had them painted then reinstalled them after we dropped the motor back in.
