Definitely an “A+” for accomplishing your goal. Bumper rocks but I guess the nicest thing I can say about the overall style is different strokes for different folks.
And Ruby, I know exactly what you were trying to say. OP, you’re gonna call it whatever you want but widebodies are "wide" all the way around. You've flared (added length to the top) of the fender but it still comes back to meet the stock body width. Maybe it's the Tech Support side of me that gets aggravated but I'm just a strong believer in calling stuff what it is. Here's a Mazda 3 for example.
STOCK
FLARED
WIDEBODY (ugly as heck but still)

thanks, you paved the way.
i want an award!
lets do it! im down since i missed the last bay area WDP shoot we had.
thanks, ive already gotten used to driving it...drove 160 miles @ 70-80 mph.
trying to keep up with you, almost there.
ATLP V1..might not be in production anymore..check heeltoe, theyve taken over ATLP.
haha yea, i dont mind if ppl call it widebody or flared, i just figured it was a more appealing thread title 
the front and rear bumpers were widened via "plastic welding" to match the fenders..its widened 4" on EACH side so its pretty extensive, but in the end, it just flaring with the bumpers to match.
i wanna do a supercharger for one reason. i want a FMIC and i cant just run a FMIC intercooler with no boost lol.
thanks guys, the bumper has the agressiveness i was after, and, imo, it matches the rest of the car perfectly.
i want an award!
Fuk I can't stop lookin at the pics I vote Adrians car for ride of the fukin century... One of the hottest TL's for sure. I would love to get all the WDP's the are hella clean together for a shoot..
Anyway if u guys wanna see ass shots go to canibeats page or if u have them on FB go to there FB page they posted Adrians car about 1.5 hours ago I would post the link but I'm posting from my phone with no wifi rite now
Edit maybe I can http://www.canibeat.com/2011/07/tota...//www.canibeat

I saw this on tumblr not too long ago and swore it was a photochop but it had the canibeat logo. I was like it had to be fake cause I had never seen that front bumper before but low and behold it is the real deal. Nice job man. Can definitely tell you put in some work.
