First, take the fender off, then place new panel against body and mark area to cut.
Cut 1/4" smaller than mark with plasma, cut-off wheel or tin snips, no fat ass grinder wheel! :lol:

Massage area to fit panel perfectly, then tack in place with tip oriented more toward the
new panel than the body's metal. Repeat as necessary! :mrgreen:

I hate to say it, but the JC Whitney's panels were thicker than the CIP1's panel. JC sent me the Klokkenhiem(something like that) from Denmark. Same price.
