Do know if they do it through a flexible joint or is it welded solid?

I've been thinking about doing this since I have some fabrication experience plus I live with a journeyman welder. Ive been trying to visualize what a more angled, less round fender would look like without much luck.

Yours definitely look goo though man

Thanks man, this has defiantly been a tough project but I think they are going to be pretty sweet when I'm done.

Yes, I mainly did it for the added strength, but I also wanted something that looked a little different than everything else out there.

Yes, I think it will give a lot of added strength to the lower part of the fender.
