Title pretty much says it all..

this is such a seemingly stupid item, but i cant find anyone who makes something simple in a size i think i would need.

I have OEM fenders that had the outer edge lip cut off, and it looks NASTY sharp.. aside from just some cheapo door edge guard, is there a slim and very low profile and very robust and protective sheet metal edge guard i can use on that edge before i reinstall my VS overfenders on the front?

A link would be awesome, but if not a part or brand name and a specific size (1/16,3/32.. mm?? dunno) would be much appreciated..

i need to order up about 10 feet of it very quickly.. because Ive somehow convinced myself my car is actually going to get finished at this shop somehow.

im not sure if you have the skill but remaking the lip would be a simple enough task eastwood makes a fender finishing kit that would make this pretty easy and would give a nice rounded edge where the metal is folded. just take some tin snips to make some inital small snips, only go about half of what you want the lip to be(so if your going to fold half an inch of material for the lip make the snip no longer then a quarter inch) and use the kit they sell to slowly fold the metal over on each fender while using the heat gun to soften the paint. kit is like 75 bucks if i remember correctly and this would be the correct way to do it anyway.

 

pics!!!

 

Ha... Nah man.. u dont want pics..isht is nasty..its cut from when we tried to fit those redik huge wheels up front .. the fenders will be replaced later on.. edge guard is what I want now..again..its not visibly exposed.. I have over fenders.

So..
Molding anyone? Wtf is the stuff called? Seems dumb but I've stopped at lowes n home depot n they have no clue.. next im thinking maybe grainger?

 

I'm still lost to what part is sharp? Get rid of it! what ever it is by either grinding it smooth or cutting it off!

 

The whole front fender lip is cut. Its just straight up sheetmetal..so Im needing to put some thin flanging on it.. ill list pics of what I mean when I get into work..

 

Last time I saw the car, the fenders looked like a blade! lol So what's being done today?

 

When I bought my motorcycle windshield it came with a thin rubber strip for the top to prevent a sharp edge on the plastic. It is a very tight fit and does not move. Not sure how that helps or where to get any but its an idea. maybe go to a glass/plexiglass place and see that kind of edge protectors they use.

 

IMO, +1 on King's post. Just grind and smooth it out.

 

Check out McMaster Carr, they might have something. I would grind it as smooth as possible before you add anything.

yep there ya go.. thanks Philly G35.. Ive found this stuff before but the sizes were too big, or they wanted 5 dollars foot or some rediculous price etc.. these guys look solid.. thanks man.

 

Ok so this is for you stock fender right? if so just trim it back cause this would just be a band aid. Eventually your tire will rub through it!

 

it is a band aid, i want diff fenders soon. but i got bigger fish to fry at the moment.
and the stuff im buying has a metal liner in it, tuff stuff.
