Ok im about to order some flares for my 4 door and before i get all silly n stuff i would really like some informed opinons and advise on the cutting on the rear doors , i don't think even a dummy like me can sort the fronts out . Are there any "tricks" of the fitting of the rears ?
cheers all :D

Easy to fit just take time and care doing rears.
inner guard is easy.
the door is the hard bit.
not hard as such but CARE must be taken as once you cut to much off its gone.
