Well, actually I have not done this yet, what I said (or meant to say) was that in order to fit the strips to my fenders, I'd have to cut them because of the side repeaters. I could move the repeaters, but that would not be stock, and I don't want that, even if my car is dark. I'd like to be able to return any mods to stock. What I have been thinking about with the strips was cutting them with the Dremel, leaving a bit more on the top surface, and bending this bit down to finish it off at the end. Maybe seal off the bare metal with some silver paint. PerL 73 Variant L -----------------------------------------ô×¹ ------------------ Too much?
