W202 wide body track car

Hi everyone hope you are well

Ive just finished my W202 wide aches in metal. The arches where in plastic before witch served a purpose to spot rubbing as I run wider tyres (track car)
here is some pictures and my YouTube video. If you could please subscribe to my YouTube thanks. Also made lower side skirts hopefully more aero

Looks like good work but I have to ask, why run a wide body it if you arent gonna maximise the space to fill it in with an even wider tire. Would there e no benefit to that?

Now that's some serious sizes. You may loose some top speed and acceleration though. I noticed it when using 17" or 18" wheels

I remember you posting about this a long time ago. The wide body looks good. Line up the front and rear bumpers with the wide arches and it's would look AMAZING! Do you have plans to modify the bumpers to match the wide body?
