i have a welder, but no tube bender, and i am not the most experienced welder either.

what settings did you have your welder on (if you used mig, but reading through this i think it was tig) for the sheet metal to the 1/8" tubing?
Yea the fenders are great. They are tied into the bumpers and the rockers(2x6) to make a sub frame for the whole exo. I got to smash the cage pretty good at kelly flats last weekend it's as solid as a rock. To weld the tubing to the sheet metal you have to use thin wire and lowish heat.They are mig'ed to the sheet metal. Favor the thicker material. The fenders are useless unless you tie them to solid mounting points like the bumper.
