On the other hand, the original plan was to have the fenders cut out, get used ones from a donor welded in, then strip it all down and shoot a fresh coat of paint.
Thoughts?
If you go with flares, personally I would wait until you get rims . That way you know exactly how to contour them. So there nicely flush with the rims.
If the rust is really bad, then I would go with the donor plan. Then flare or pull the fenders when you get rims.
