Looking good, getting new front fenders or just prepping stuff. Do your 35s hit the inner fenders at bump?

The front fenders are at the bodyshop getting a real paint job, got tired of the spray paint. The bedsides will be replaced with glassworks 7".

I dont rub at all becuase i have 10" shocks so they are bumped lower, once my 8" finally get here ill be moving the hydro bump up and check for clearance then. Others have had to cut some out to get the full travel#'s though

looks much better full width. And as far as inner fender up front I hardly have any of it left. just the upper part to bolt a fender to pretty much.
