..thanks. Any more details?

How much wider?
Did the wheels/tires not fit without this?
Was the body shop able to do it without repainting/cutting the fender? (I see that it's cut for other reasons, I mean specifically to make it wider.)

Inquiring minds want to know!

Originally I just wanted the fender cut for design and wheel well venting purposes, but when I finally put the new rims and tires on we found that they were in fact too wide for this car. So the custom widebody build began. The fenders were pulled out to match these rims, I plan on keeping these until replacing them with Tc105n which are the same width and offset so. I dont know exactly how much wider they are, I'll have to find that out. But I am picking up the car tomorrow morning so expect some teaser shots tomorrow night. Then being prepped and will be on the track friday!

Car going back into shop this weekend to get custom rear amuse to line up with widened quarter panels. Also got the material in to wrap the car, so as soon as the car is back I'll be starting on that. Next will be suspension mods!

Btw, these stoptechs are amazing.

Are you concerned about rocks from your front tires pitting that beautiful fender work?
