They did a cut in the tub area the tire would rub on when compressed, then pushed the panels in and filled the gap to make it look like the factory well panel. It was my choice to do this vs a real mini tub panel since I didn't want to do that and make it look even more modified. I tried to keep this factory looking which in the end was a major expense vs a Schwartz frame and mini tubs.
I am not sure is this panel mod is necessary vs other frame notches that just pound it back. Since my frame went in a little deeper than normal (I'm past the seem) and we added the 1/4" plate that went inside frame then through the rear bend area frame etc the more tucked BS created a bit more rubbing areas. I needed a similar cut and blend to the well area right above the middle of the tire since it came in so far.
I'll say this, it's about as factory looking frame notch as you're gonna get, it was way more $ than expected, it tucks nicely and it's what I wanted. If this mod and 325s don't hook I'll be pissed.
