Ok,Well I really dont know what you need,I could drill the spot welds out,that would be the bucket,1 inch past the bucket would ruin the fender,guess it just depends what you want to spend.
i was kind of hoping somebody on here would have a rusted out or junk fender that was decent in that area (and would sell me that section). i surely wouldn't expect anybody to cut that area out of a good fender.
