I deleted it when I finished installing the front fenders and it seems pretty easy to me lol. But if you wanna help we can work on the rear fenders together xd.

But I'm pretty impatient, so I may just do it myself the next 1 or 2 days

I called 2 shops, 1 was 2,800, and 1 as 2,000. I would never spend that much for a day of work myself. I'm getting the air lift suspensions cus i was able to save that much from installations.

I'm telling you guys, installing the fenders as in cutting them and riveting/screwing them on is work anybody can do. Sealing the rear quarter to prevent rust, rocks, debris, etc... is where the real work is. Of course, you can always try cutting the quarter panels and asking a local shop if they could just do the sealing part. Just know the rear isn't to be cut off completely in two pieces. You just cut off the first/outer layer and it should be able to pull apart from the inner piece easily, leaving enough excess to be used to seal it up.

I think everybody should already know that if they're thinking of do it themselves lol

Not everybody ._. Almost all RB I've seen in person has that left wide open when I look under and see haha. Luckily their cars are only driven for shows and garage queens otherwise.
