Anyone with any suggestion(s)

I'm wanting to clearance my rear wheel openings a little, the rear half.
I'll have no problem cutting it, but I haven't figured out a way to "round off" the sharp edges after I finish the cuts.
Any ideas ??





Fred

Are you looking for a piece of platic/rubber molding? Or you might do like the street rodders and use small dia. emt or conduit tubing to make an edge to weld on there? Another idea might be to take a hard look at the old CJ rear fender flares, they butted up to the body but had a lip that would cover the cut edges, and were not very wide.

Either of those may work.
I was sort of wondering what others have done, and if any have "simply" bend the edge over somehow.



Thanks,
Fred
