I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

make sure when you do it lay it out on the car and use making tape around the edges of the templae when you cut. if not u will get a ton of lil steel pieces scratching the shit out of your paint.. also after you cut it out. use touch up paint or some tyle pf paint/silicone over the exposed steel. if not any type of water that touches that exposed steel it will rust quick.

I agree with jawn. That's what we both did. Mask and tape off most of the fender and lay the template on top of it. Cut a little bit, check for fitment, cut a little more, etc. Better to cut too little. You won't have to force the sidemarker in either. It'll just pop in nice and smooth. It also wouldn't hurt if when you lay the template on the paper/tape lay a level on top of the line to make sure that the sidemarker will be level.

Good luck. I'm sure you'll be fine. It's gut-wrenching when you start cutting.
