Started installing my diamond stitched Clazzio covers. I only did the front seats, head rests, and rear armrest pocket. Still have the rears, armrests, and door panels.

The pictures don't do them justice, they look amazing in person. I've done 2 of the door panels, once I finish everything up I will get some good pictures.

Pulled out as in the inner part of the fenders have been pulled out? Because that was the reason why i rolled my fenders lol. Rolling fenders should help with that problem but when you roll your fenders there will be small dimples showing on the outside of the fender because of the square tabs of the inner fender wall. Unfortunately, i don't know how to solve that problem haha

re balanced front wheels after my flat last week.. I hit a huge dip on a bridge and the tire was sliced by the metal tab inside the fender.. Make sure you guys either bend those back really good or cut them off..

What if you cut/split the hole where the tabs used to be? Just like a slit so that the hole is disconnected. Then roll them. Not sure if you get what I'm trying to say?

Socalcyco... so we have to cut out the old tabs for front and rears, and then roll/shave fronts and shave only on rears?

That's sounds right, I shaved my fronts down to about 1/4 inch, but never rolled them, now I wish I had. I shaved the tears only down to the spot welds (about 1/2 inch) because I don't want to deal with splitting panels.
