Fender flare help
last year I had my Bushwacker fender flares coated with line-x..I am in need of the rubber strips that go between the flare and body..The stock ones are to small.I have thought of using vacuum line and split it,but I no longer have the steady hand to cut it straight....Any ideals???

To be honest I would get something you can have someone cut for you so you know you won't be replacing it again a year from now. IMHO they are too cheap for what we have paid for the flares.... They look great though
If you were closer I'd cut it for you... I've got that steady welders hand

dont no what size tube you would be workin with but, how about set up a jig of some sort. screw down 2 pulleys next to each other on a piece of plywood maybe, with a hole in it to fasten a carpet knife right behind the pulleys from underneith. then just pull the hose through

Joey maybe I can help you cut them. Wood dow rod in the hose and a square maybe to keep the line. Oh yeah, and a few clamps.
