Just remember to mask off the area you arent cutting with tape. Make sure you have enough room to cut the fender tab off also cause if you cut too close you might go through the fender. If you want but you dont have to then you can use the angle grinder with the cutoff disc as a grinder, thats what i did to even everything out.

If youre a retarded driver thats when you'll hydrolock your shit.

I've driven my TL thru flood before & i didnt hydrolock it.

Only thing that got fucked up was my passenger side headlight fuse/ballast

but then again im not running any fender liner on that side.
