soooooo, once again, i'm riding around in orlando........BAM, I destroyed my front fenders cause my tires mangled them. Just another casualty of livin the low life, static, and not having your fender properly pulled enough.

this week i removed/junked the mangled fenders from the car, and started hammering my fender wells some more. Also removed airbag wires, rerouted the windsheild fluid and hood cables.






I had to leave at least 1" of travel in the front. Here's a measuring tape view of where my tires are in relation to my fender wells..


in perspective..




Current height after maxing out the rears, rolled/pulled the replacement fenders(which will be dropped off at the paint shop on Monday). Sheeitty pic but u get the point..

These wheels will be going up for sale after Simply Clean 3...


*btw, W58 tranny for sale..

just a fyi: I spoke to Miro directly and they told me that they've stopped making them in 5x114, so consider urself lucky if u can find a set, other than used.

Wow, thanks for those pics with the fender off. That really helps me plan the stance on my car. Not much room travel in there, a necessary sacrifice though.

MIGS,
Have you posted these in the classifieds yet, I may be interested in taking 'em off your hands? If not would you mind shooting me a PM with the details? I don't want to clutter your thread.

Also, I like your fender flares out back. Did you need to cut anything or just slowly "massage" them out?

The wheel whoaring continues. Picked up some 18" Work VS-KFs...

I like chrome lips, but not faces. so i plan to powdercoat all four centers, and rebarrel the fronts for more dish.
