Default 3 piece front end question...

I got the bumper mounted and the tops of the fenders mounted but my question is how are you guys mounting the bottom of the fenders to the car? I'm kinda stumped on how to do it. It's a exo speed 3 piece reg style.

3/8 steel rod is what you want to use.

That fender mount looks like such a pain in the ***. I ended up mounting it in the reg location behind the door and use 2 self tappers on the bottom under the car.

The fenders I used 1/4" cause it's so light there's no need for 3/8ths on the fender

That mount took me about 20 minutes to make it was very easy
