Default Fender Trimming Questions

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while. Finally finished the 2.5 inch RC lift on my 96 blazer (previously did 2inch PA BL). I installed some hub-centric wheel spacers on my truck and I'm getting some serious rub on my front fenders with 31s on. Goal is to get a set of 32s on there by summer. I've searched some threads and they didn't really have a step by step on where and how to trim for 32s. Any ideas? I have plenty of tools at my disposal so any technique should be fine. Please and thanks everyone.

There's a link in there that will take you to the instructions for the skidz cut out flares and shows a nice method for trimming the fenders that we did on the blazer in that thread.

edit: post 13 has the link with the fender trimming instructions

+1 on the link Jamaroon shared. It's basically what I followed, other than I used JB weld putty to bond the front edge back after cutting out the pie shape from the fender. With my grey/rust coloured fender edges and the grey JB weld you can barely see the edges.
