Cutting up to them is not needed for clearance and would add lots of difficulty to the job as you would have to create a way to reattach the inner fender panels. If your plan is to hack up that high and wide, plan on lots of fab and body work, or a really good way to cover it all up. Then you must ...

The holes might be covered by some self adhesive vinyl matching the paint? That would be the cheapest. It is likely that you will also have scars where the flares rub the paint. That is going to be hard to fix or cover. Some body work and matching paint would be ideal. There might not be an inexpen...

There might not be an inexpensive fix that is perfect. thats what i figured When you get ready to pull the trigger, give us a "heads up" and feel to PM us or call on a cell ph, google talk or skype. i might have to do that, thanks Even if you do the Skids Flare cuts , that alone will not be enough ...

no flares

does anyone have pics of their rig with the cuts made, but NO skidz flares?

i found 1 thread with a white zr5, but no finished pics. i'm looking at this possibility since the skidz are no longer available and the 6" lift is not an option, but i would really like to cram some 33's in there

all i get when i check that thread is a "file not found" and other failures. i have no intentions of installing those myself, i woudl pay a body shop to do them for me if i bought them i thought about flare-less but i think the front bumper cap/buldge thing would look silly without a flare to match ...
