I want to remove between 4.25" and 5" from the rear fender.
Based on my vision and other people's ideas, there's 2 ways to do it.
1: Chop 5" off the bottom of the fender and drill new holes for the taillight/plate.
2: Chop 5" off the other end of the fender and "relocate" it by drilling new mounting holes.
Has anyone done either? Pros and cons?
Pro to relocating would seem you get to keep the "finished' edge which I guess would really end up being a matter of whether or not you are painting.
