Here's mine. They are the color match Sahara Fender flare. I used a drimel at a low speed and just took my time.

I will be doing mine soon, along with my bumpers. As already mentioned I would follow Reds example to get you a good starting point. They look good and dont look like a hack job.

I like the way you angled them on the front. I've been looking for ideas and everyone has them either squared/triangled out. Nice.
