My car is currently sitting at T&L Autobody in El Monte, CA getting the bodywork stuff done.
Today we test fitted the Chargespeed fenders. Fitment is on point!

The problem is, with the way that Chargespeed fenders came out from factory, there's still quiet some width to the inner lip, which isn't going to give me the clearance I need to fit my wheels correctly.

A lot of people who haven't had this type of air suspension setup would claim that they ride like *****, but they actually ride like coilovers if not stiffer than what I had (Stance GR+)
Thanks a lot man!

Recently just refinished my wheels, going to rebarrel them again to slightly more aggressive specs.
Front Fitment with a 3.0" Lip:

Looks like I'm going to be using a 2.5" front and 3.0" rear. Trying to do this without running much stupid camber.
And here's more detailed photos of the refinishing.
Wheels are not goldplated. They're powdercoated.
