Default q about 1-piece headlights

i was looking in LLTeks mag yesterday and saw that if you installed 1 pieces in a 99 or lower there was a chance of rusting cause you would have to shave the fender...has anyone had this problem? is there any way to prevent this from happening?

i have 1-piece headlights on my car, it was 70 bux to get them installed, my car is a '96 and they didnt say anything... but im pretty sure they did cut something out, but its something easy and not really anything that will be harmful

You could always prime or spay that rust inhibitor over the spot that you cut. Just make sure you mask off the rest of the bumper well.

The very small piece that you shave/grind/cut off will not rust. But if your doubtful just do what north said. And ateurv8 you got robbed $70, it takes 10 minutes to do it yourself.
