looks really good. Did you cut the bumpers where they run along the fenders on the outside?

Nope I have 1 inch clearance, bumper to fender. I had to trim the flexible fillers though.

Thinking about doing the back too. I can only go in a little over an inch on back.

Did you just trim the fillers along that front edge that sits under the bumper?
Or did you have to cut back further?

Just trimmed to match the profile of the bumper, there's room for error.

OK...probably starting this soon, wasn't sure where to trim.
I did get an extra set of corners just in case.

Did you have to cut the center piece as well?

I'll be looking out for your pics to see how it turns out. I was told to just remove the center section on my 75 Malibu but I would have to trim the edges. That makes me kind of nervous.
