So guys, hate to say it but, I failed! I don't want to pull more of my fender and have it buckle on me so, later on when I get the cash, I'm gonna get a shop to do a custom fender pull. Right now, I'm rolling as is but I really can't have passengers in my back seat haha. None the less, it looks great, and even better when I get the custom fender pull and Function & Form Type 2 Coilovers.



Thanks to everyone who were positive and supported me! Btw, more pictures later. I'm currently sick right now and bed ridden.

I'll look up your varianzas later. I'll take some pictures tomorrow and then I'll remove them off my car and throw the stockies back on. I'll put them back on whenever I go to Houston to get fender work done. It was a fun project though and it the rims look nice.

Of course it's ridiculous. Me and another member here are gonna get our fenders custom fabricated as soon as funds come up with school around the corner. I don't like the fitment now, but I like how these style rims look on the car.

was going to comment on the natural camber part that it wont happen while reading. then i saw the end result.

if you do get the work dont it will look sick!!!!!

im running 9.5 plus 22 and running zero camber and rub with 3 passenger in the rear. rolled fender and its a about a perfect fitment. a 5mm poke.

just remember once u start running camber have your money ready! i forgot to flip my tires in three months when i was running -6 camber when i was on a 35 profile tire and it put me out 350 bucks....i was on 20s so i was on the wrong size tires =\

I've never understood the logic and reasoning behind the extra wide tires/deep dish wheels in the rear of a TL/any FWD car...not like the extra rubber is needed back there. And most people know it's a FWD car so... Flame on.

Props to trying something crazy even if it didn't work out right. It really sticks out from everything else. <--- pun.

I usually like the flush and stanced cars, but the ones posted above are hideous. I'm all for being different but those people made their cars look like life-sized Hot Wheels cars

To me, that's based on a performance aspect, which I really don't care for anymore. I like it because it looks nice to me.

And at the end of the day- that's all that matters.

Don't worry though, I'm still working on the rears so it'll won't look like a hot wheels' car.

Oh reeeeeeaaally... Haha JK dude...Don't worry man. Slap your stocks back on and get the funds together. It's just a matter of time. In the end, put enough effort and you'll get the results you want.

I pulled the fenders out A LOT more. Well, quarter panel took a beating, but it does look a lot better IMO. I'm waiting for a friend to finish up his s14.5 so we can do a shoot together. Pics coming soon.
