not sure what the cart had for returning the brake and throttle before, but there was nothing there. so we added some return springs, and some pull limiters and stoppers on the rods. so you can't just press the throttle so far it breaks lol...

Only way to do it and make it look right is to try to replicate the existing fender just drawing the lines out enough to get the flare you want.

The boy and I terrorized the neighborhood today on the go kart and minibikes
After a few mins off hard riding the go kart motor stopped smoking. No smoke at all now the rings must have reseated Lol I also put the stock muffler on, it was too loud for the neighborhood. It hit 40mph with the stock muffler, didn't test with the straight pipe but I think it could hit 45 The muffler really cuts rpm down at top speed |

Most sport trucks keep the wheels in the fenders and don't use flares much. I'm so indecisive on how I want the truck to look and I'm not artistic at all so getting what's in my head into a physical shape is hard

Maybe look at sport truck styling of the 90's early '00
 In google type in Ford Courier wide body and your truck comes https://www.google.com/search?q=ford+courier+wide+body&client=opera&hs=Shu&sca_esv=ff92a7c727511e7b&sxsrf=AHTn8zr79u3ZlbLnS-lOOHDp18wUfiQxAA%3A1742218645696&ei=lSXYZ82PKsfckPIPj6CEyQk&ved=0ahUKEwiNrv2bnpGMAxVHLkQIHQ8QIZkQ4dUDCBI&uact=5&oq=ford+courier+wide+body&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiFmZvcmQgY291cmllciB3aWRlIGJvZHkyBBAAGB4yCxAAGIAEGIYDGIoFMgsQABiABBiGAxiKBTIIEAAYgAQYogQyCBAAGIAEGKIEMggQABiABBiiBDIIEAAYogQYiQVIsg5Q1AhY1AhwAXgAkAEAmAGQAaABkAGqAQMwLjG4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgKgAqwBwgIJEAAYsAMYCBgewgIOEAAYgAQYsAMYhgMYigXCAgsQABiABBiwAxiiBMICCBAAGLADGO8FmAMAiAYBkAYHkgcDMS4xoAeCBLIHAzAuMbgHlwE&sclient=gws-wiz-serp |

was bored last night so i added some guides for the throttle cable. you know you're getting old when you care about stupid shit like throttle cables getting caught in sprockets or ripped off by shit.
