They're not too hard to do. In the '50's we did them on the car, by taking out the center tube & the headlights and with a long pointed aligining bar in the headlight hole, with a rosebud, heat it for the first bend at the fender & pry it down with the bar. Then heat for the second bend & pry up with the bar. Lastly, adjust the length (CUT) the center tube & weld it in. Bill W.
