Finally decided to pull off my cracked lower valance.

I just pooped myself....This is soo clean

Did a little shopping.

It looks great! I would be scared about cutting the fender too! Thanks for the feedback I usually know quite a bit of the automotive world but never CB's. I just realized they are similar to military comms.
