New pics of vwong's car
Well, I'm tired of seeing the only pic of my car that was taken in front of my garage. So I went ahead and did a photoshoot of my car today before (and after) the meet. Here are a few of my favorites.
You can see the rest here, http://www.vwong.org/cl9.htm.
Enjoy.

OMG.....SWEET!!!!!!!!! How do you keep from rubbing in the fronts? My car with 18 x 7.5 +48 was rubbing so bad that it rubbed paint off of my fenders, I cant imagine how it is with 19's dumped.

You can't tell from the pics, but his front fenders are slightly flared. It's really well done. I didn't notice until he pointed it out. He also made modifications to the plastic liner in the wheel well.

Not only did he roll the lip of the fender, he actually also slightly flared the whole fender out a bit for more clearance.
Here's a recent thread on fender rolling. Post #4 shows the fender rolling tool.

Oh yeah, if anyone wants to use that tool to roll the rear fenders, just make sure you heat up the area pretty good, otherwise the paint will crack. On the passenger side (the first side I did), there are some cracks. However, on the driver side, it's perfect (other than the "waves").
love the drop and the wheels
