Question 3rd Gen fender trimming

I have yet to trim in my fender wells yet, but it's definitely time. My question is how much of that plastic do I need to get out of there? If you can, add a line to this top picture where I should be cutting. I think the picture goes high enough for the area in question.





Also, has everyone pounded back this piece here? I'm pretty sure that's the second half to completing the job.



Thanks

Trim the plastic back and grind down the pinchweld a bit. Put the hammer away, you can do better than that. Use a grinder and 50 or 36 grit discs.

I cut the very bottom of the fender off, basically just the very botton clip mount. Hammering is not necessary, you can do it really clean with a dremmel.

Ghetto or Arizonan?
