Have had to drill spot welds before to move skin down, in line with fender. Even gone as far as taking it to get acid dip to eat way the adhesive -then cut spot welds so the skin could be taken off the inner stucture. Had to beat the F*#k out of the stucture to get it to go down. Or I have seen people get a little movement out of cutting welds on fender and moving them up. Those NOS newer stampings dont as arule fit good..hate to say it but the goodmark fits much better.
