Jen (jenz58) bought some new running boards but couldn't get them to fit properly because the lip on the pan had been bent above the jacking
point. She asked me to cut a bit out of the running boards so I thought we'd make a tech article about it for those who may have encountered the
same problem. I'm not really recommending anyone do this, it seems such a shame to cut up a new part!
Here's the bent lip...
Then I marked the area of the cut-out required onto the running board with a permanent texta...
Then went at it with the tin-snips!!
After a test-fit and a bit more of a trim, we bolted it back onto the car...
It was impossible to get the right angle with the camera, but I actually managed to get quite a neat fit!
