Did you only roll your quarters then? We rolled and cut mine, no point in saving the paint on the quarter panel anymore lol!

Very nice, definitely never seen that done before.

they were actually pulled and flared out to meet the overfenders. In doing so, the strength and rigidity of the quarter panels are kept in tact, but I would still like to have the qp's cut out for additional clearance. One of these days, I will get an underside shot of the rear quarters for you guys to show you what I mean, haha.

Probably something made out of titanium and gold.
