Replaced my mangled fender to core support braces with some cutlass junkyard ones. No one ever really tells you but Regal fenders are indeed 3 pieces. Outer shell, inner shell, and the wheel well. They do not have the same fender mounting locations available. So I whittled down the ends to fit in a little slot and used the 10mm bolts to hole em to the fenders. Also found out .y cruise ball is cracked, idk how long that's been like that. Yes the drivers side is askew. I need to make a bracket to relocate the cruise ball because it is in the way.

Struggled to get everything flat and spent an extra 4 hours cleaning. What I thought would be done last Thursday, I finished on Monday at 11pm.

Can’t you use butyl calking like they use in windshield installations?

I don't know a brand but whatever it is never dries or hardens, it's sticky and like snot, really gummy.
Butyl rubber. Comes in various sizes of "rope" and there's a slightly different type that's available as caulking.
