yea he could do that. he would just ask u though if thats really wat u want haha. he quoted roughly 1500+ to repair or replace and paint a rear quarter if you wanted to change ur mind again haha. but if your sure u wanna cut, he would do it.

also like felipe has mentioned Joel does good work too, however he has a long waiting list haha and his price is one of those "you get what you pay for" haha.

yea, i went to scott at aiea collision. good place, but i will say.. that they r great in collision repairs more than regular body customization doh! haha. but customization, if its simple stuff no problem, but i havent tried to ask to do something crazy yet.

was easy i think for them haha. and i didnt end up cutting haha. idk if i told u that felipe. but i think eventually, i might partial mold it and then more so cut the oem fender haha. and also shave the trim off the asm fender lol.
you told me mike. the asm fender rear over molded looks good too. just depends what look you're going for.
shaving will give you a few more mm of clearance. i'm planning to have joel space them out as needed

would they be ok with cutting the oem fender and welding?

i wanna run 275 or larger in the rear with 0 camber

WHAT!?!?!?!?!?! O.o
you will have to shave or space out the rear over to accommodate a 275 with 0 camber.
fyi, nichigo was running a 255/9J+22 and still rubbed with shaved rear overs (which i have now).
my new rears have a higher offset but will require camber to make it work
that being said, you may be able to run higher offset wheels like a 6ULR with no body work

i guess it wouldn't hurt to run some negative camber
