Default Fender chop pictures

I know there are similar threads with some pictures out there but I wonder if people will respond specifically with pictures of their chop jobs and not necessarily comments? I am going to do it but want to see the depths and cut lines different posters use as well as your inner fender treatment. Do most people just remove the inner fender? Has anyone cut it and folded to the sheet metal to seal things back up? Detail pics of front and rear inner well appreciated.

NWJKRubi, check out the installation instructions for the Xenon flat flares.. you will want to trim the inner's the same way. there are a few write ups on this site for them.

I did use the search but didn't use the right combo of words. Mods can close the thread if they like, first link is exactly what I was after.
