I was never really a big fan of that spoiler but damn does it look clean on your ride man. It looks awesome with the window spoiler A+++.

Are your fenders pulled or are they just rolled?

You need some Ron Vogel LCA's LOL

Holy crap... A quarter just blew my mind! Amazingly low.

Thanks! Theyre just rolled with a mallet and heat gun but they probably got pulled slightly when I rolled them. I'd like to pull the rears a bit but the lip couldnt go completely flat. I've been considering shaving the lip on the rears so I can get really close fitment and add those spacers that I still have.

haha mine dont like how im treating them. I read somewhere that Ron Vogels were discontinued? What are your thoughts on the zzp ones?

I decided to finally get those spacers on today. Then the length stud i chose was 54mm i think and was just long enough that i had to take the whole hub off to get them on. They're 10mm spacers and I also rolled my fenders a little flatter and pulled them a tiny bit. And you guys should be happy to hear that I have plans to try out painting the black fender tomorrow haha

New fitment

Looking good. Take your time on the fender, I'm used to it looking like that LOL. Better than the 4wd tire marks.

Haha yeah youre right, and i'd prefer a nicely painted black fender over a crappy white one. Lets hope i dont mess up anything

You've got it down perfect now man!

Im guessing you rolled them with a mallet and heat? How'd you pull them?

I changed my mind. I want my spacers back.

Part number on the studs? Or were they ARP?

Yep I just took a mallet to them again and a heat gun and just hit them a little harder. Its crazy how thick the rear fenders are, you just smack the mess out of them. The mallet pulled them out a tiny bit and then the last little bit was applying some heat and dropping the car down and letting the tires do the work.

haha if you come take them off for me, it was a huge pain with the new studs. They're napa ones 641-1581 and I had to go to 3 stores because the first guy only had 5, then the 2nd guy only had 3 and then finally i got the rest from a 3rd store. And then my hubs were rusted on bad

hooottttt

Doooooooooood


Yes.

Haha thank you, im super excited to have everthing matching again. I'll try and get it done tomorrow and post up pictures.

There better be 10+ pictures.

Maybe your car can make it onto my desktop background.

.


that is all...

Okay so i didnt quite finish up today, but its painted and drying right now. Then i'll put it back on the car and wait a little bit before I polish it up. I think it turned out okay, or at least for spray paint. Im just a little worried about the color matching right.

Garage paint shop


drying


and i thought a no fender picture might be cool

Should of just sticker bombed the fender!
