Its close to factory, but I couldn't get the radius tight enough to perfectly match. I just used a big english wheel and body hammers/dollies.

Its not that nice up close yet but getting there. Heck its a 4x4 it'll probably get smashed into a tree or something and I'll just straighten it back out.

 

I just used offset aviation tin snips(best sheet metal cutting tool in the world short of a beverly shear) to cut the fender then rolled the lip with the english wheel, then beat the lip under with hammer/dollies

I swear I'm going to actually get this thing driving! 

 

I spent the last month or two moving closer to work and getting married, so yeah this Saturday is my first time to able to touch the truck in the longest time... been a minute or two.
