    Default Changing the front quarter guards

    Hello ,

    Just wondering if anyone can tell me how easy/ hard it is to take off my front quarter guards and put the SS ones with the flutes in??

    Would it fit straight in ???

    Thanks

    Tony

    I was saying you get the template when you buy the flutes so you know where to cut.

    its hard, but not to bad if there is two of you doing it, basicly front bar needs to come off and side skirts, its just hard to get it to line up, should only take a couple of hours for a first attempt, just be patient with the plastic screws on the side skirts
