I'm ready to roll n pull my fenders now. Check out the vid. Take a close look at the rear 1/4 panels. That's how mine needs to look. Hopefully a lttl smoother lol.

lets do it! i think what hes lacking is to take it to a body shop after your done pulling them and having them smooth out the kinks with bondo or whatever to make them look new again!

As soon as I get back from JTrans. Hoping everything goes smoothly. I hope its just a matter of tuning and it doesn't cost me much. If it something serious, then I'm screwed

I've been watching countless you tube vids and the rolling is easy. Pulling takes a lttl more finess. I think with the right amount of heat and attention to detail itll look smooth and wont crack the paint.

I just need 250 bucks in my account to cover the refundable deposit :|

The car is lowered about 3/4-1" in the rear. I cut the spring boot. I also installed camber arms and toe adjustment bolt so the wheels dont tuck inward as much when lowered. They are more straight so thats why they stick out more than usual. If I had negative camber then theyd be tucked in and maybe not rub but then I would have less of a contact patch and inner tire wear. I need all the contact patch possible

Eventually I want to get some coilovers but truthfully it's hard enough driving around the way it is already. I really like the way they sit though. It makes the car look super aggressive. I would only drop it that low for when I know exactly where I'm going. No speed bumps or steep driveways lol
