We welded a small 1/4" x 1" piece of steel to the hinge itself as a bump stop. I also am using the original-style straps as backup. Overkill, maybe, but the prospect of a dinged-up fender from the door opening too far was not acceptable.

Sorry, can't post a pic as the blocks are hidden behind the fiberglass hinge covers.
