Would this amount of damage be concerning? Think a 5mm would be enough?

That's the inside of the tire where it's rubbing on the strut? I'd go 10mm to be safe if you have the room on the outside. Wider track in front is never a bad thing anyway.

Guys I have decided I an going to extend the fronts on mine at the same time I do the rears.

The question is what et would I need to clear the strut for a 9.5" x 19 running a 265/35?

I plan to do 12" x 19 et 30 rear running a 305/30

Car is looking good! Kind of surprised you left the sidemarkers though. I think i would have had those filled in.

I never thought of that. But I know its illegal not to have side markers so why take the chance.

Thanks guys. I'm just glad I'll finally be able to get to the performance part to see how we can squeeze more power out of it.

It's gonna be so sick.

What color black did you go with. I'm going to need a full repaint over the winter, and am looking for the deepest inkiest black there is. Yours looks good.

Hold off on the Wrap for a bit man,

Vinyl wraps peel off aftermarket paint... especially on plastic bumpers.

After a few weeks you can try, but its 50/50 with aftermarket paint.

Looks good !

Agreed. It really is a shot in the dark with aftermarket paint.

OP -- fenders look sweet.

Check closely the second picture - are you missing one of the little wheel bolts?

The car had issue with the front bumper. Started cracking. It’s back at the shop atm. I have these pictures for now. Wheels were redone in full bronze. Wasn’t diggging the gold. Also made them a tad wider. 3” lips all around. 10x19 11x19

Hard to tell the fenders were widened which means they were done proepertly.

Update. Car is painted. Wheels are fitted. Needs to be aligned still. Sitting on 10x19 11x19 R888 265/30 295/30.
