    Chop it off.



    Weld it on.



    When you chop it off you have to weld the inner and outer guard together.

    I take no credit for mine though, as i didnt do it.

    Make sure you got the wheels to fill em tho, welding the whole guard on will be about a 40mm increase over stock!

    Mine were trimmed back so they werent quite as wide, a 8 -22 sat just poking the lip out the guard.

    That will sit the same as an 8 -4

    I seriously suggest just getting some 8 inch wheels so that the tyre stretch makes the wheel fit your stock guards, as an 8 -4 will clear stock guards with a 185/60 and a roll and pull

    Unless they are completely rusted out and need replacing then go nuts.
