Cut fenders

ok after you guys cut your fenders, and you can no longer use the inner fender, does that bother yall, is it really not that big of a deal, what about the wiring that the inner fender protects, want it get muddy or watery?

I am asking because i am about to cut my fenders, for a little more clearance and a better look( one of my fenders is all bent in where its been hit, so i want to cut that out). and if anyone has pics of how their fenders are cut, if you could post them up i would appreciate it, i need some inspiration

I have Hannemann fender, so no help on how to cut your steelies, but I haven't had any issues with the wiring in the 3 years that I've been running without inner shields. Just keep your door hinges lubed and you might want to pull the wire harness away from the inner fender a bit to shoot the inner fender with undercoat (prevent rust from stone chips in the paint)
