Front Fenders  2019

Where the front fenders ended, where the Running Boards used to be, the transition looked too "plain" or  "Flat". I decided to 'Dress up' the rear fender edge with a bit of raised trim. I cut, formed, and then leaded this piece in place to appear as if it was originally formed this way.

Now to get it to "Flow" with the curved edge. I had to do it with 2 pieces.
