do you have an actual picture of the car depending on what you have already will obviously depend on what you need. when you say shell thats a vague discription.
if you post a pic i will try and help you out as i have done the bsport wide body on my car at one point but eventually took it off after a distructive encounter with a curb.

pic does not work
depending on the kit , you might need to modify the fender liner to fit under the fender , or you will have a gap

I dont see you being able to modify it being that on alot of after market fenders they barely have big enough IF ANY inside tabs to connect fender liner to, also remember if you are stretching the fender liner that will bring it closer to your tire, and more than likely will scrub. good luck

tools: measuring tape, tin snips, a drill, a rivit gun and a little inginuity should get it done but depending on what you have on the car. if it were me i would pull the wheel apron out of a dually ford truck rear end and modify to fit the front end. it doesnt have to be an intricate piece of work it just has to protect what isnt being protected by the factory fender liner. you could easily find these trucks at any junk yard or pulla part

if im not mistaken i think they are held on by heavy duty staples on the rear end of the truck. you could also use thr front end wheel liner to make the job easier. this is what i did with my bsport wide body before i demolished it
