Default New Fender Design

I am looking at designing and fabricating new front and rear fenders for my 07 JK 2dr. Unfortunately I have no experience with metal work, welding, and pipe bending. I was wondering if there is anyone in the Gwinnett, GA area who would like to join me on this venture whos has a some experience with this line of work. Below are a few 3D model images of the design that I have come up with. Of course the design may change during the fabrication process. Please let me know if there is anyone out there that is interested.

nice looking design. you can bolt any hunk of metal to the fenders but how strong of a mount will you have. the pictures look great but the final product and its strength will be the determing factor for most of us looking a steel flares. great ideas though and i think that if your fab skills are as good as your cad drawings you will be selling them like hot cakes.
