How are you guys repairing rusty fender flares on the back? From scratch? Whole quarter panels? I don’t think I remember seeing any patch panels...

OEM or whatever works, maybe a little custom?

somebody figured out that front fender wheel openings could be grafted to the rears if you swapped the opposite sides,

i forget who did that .... Johnny do you remember?

Great idea, from 2013, good find of that thread. I'll remember that too, if my rear tires don't fit well.
