ill go back and look, but i just usedd a sawzall and a grinder. lots of hacking and cutting. some bracing too. use your fenders as your template and measure a hundred times more than u cut!

its not terrible. just take your time. only basic fabrication tools are really needed. just frustrated about the car in the shop lol. I know its being done great and my body guy is the **** but im impatient.
