Questions about cutting front fenders

I am getting ready to cut off the "fangs" on my front fenders to install my winch bumper. A while back someone posted up a real nice way to do this the right way, but I have searched and searched and cannot find it anywhere. Anybody help me out here? If I remember right, it showed how to cut it a little long and fold up the flaps so you could weld it up right? Any help here would be great!Name:  WiChevy72Pu.jpg

I know I just saw this within the last couple months, but now I can't find it!

Re: Questions about cutting front fenders

That was probably mine. I posted the pics all the way back in June. I see good ideas on here all the time, then can't seem to find them again later unless I bookmark the thread.
