Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks

Taking way longer than i thought it was gonna haha. This is at about 8 hours of work. 15 total including the stretch job. So im gonna assume about 22-25 hours of work to get these fenders done along with body filler work.

Re: 540 BBC 68 Burb Dually 54" Boggers on Rocks

Just a lil mud. If you remember i capped and welded the inside of the fenders as well as stretched them like 14" so when i did that i just had to throw some filler where the fenders were flap diked to straighten them out. No big deal... there just gonna get scrapped when i roll it the first time!
