    PXL_20260424_212755342.jpg About as many as you see here. Primarily the 4 bolts up front for the fender support and then a few along the top of the frame rail near the engine bay.

    My current Highboy sedan had fenders when I bought it. When I removed the fenders rather than fill the holes I put polished SS ****on heads in all the holes that showed and since the car was black I used block ****on heads in the running board and rear fender holes. Looks good. Fast forward 5 years, gave the car to my son and am now doing fenders and boards. Easy project as I had all the factory holes.

    Having original bolt holes showing just screams "thats like it was done" couldn't ask for a better opportunity to let your traditional (freak flag) fly!

  7. Exposed fender holes are traditional.

    look cool on the correct style build
