As for the rear fender work i eventually got to it.. i have it shaved all the way to the body lines... my goal was to shave only and not messing with the body lines...i wanted to keep the SC's body intact.. so no pulls at all to any of my fenders..
before all the rear fender work was done i had to MAX out my camber be ready to fit my wheels .. i ended up only needing 4.7 right rear.. and 3.8 left rear in order to adjust the toe back... keep in mind these are all stock components..
i ended up shaving as much as i can then grinding the rest down till its flat... took hrs.. but at the end its worth it.. my rear fitment is FENDER TO LIP...

After everything assembled i've been driving my car for a month now. i still have lots of work to do.. the trunk needs to be dressed up.. air suspension adjusted height.. height sensors installed.. and much more! but for now as the summer hits here in TEXAS i can finally enjoy my car a bit..
these photos were taken yesterday at my sister's house i had to snap a few it was very nice outside i couldnt resist not taking it out to ride..
i ended up getting pulled over i had to rig me a spot for my front plates... state trooper gave me a warning.. thank god...texas is required to have two plates on..
drove it for no front plate for 2 days... that didnt lasted at all lol...i ended up rigging up some metal plates to mount the plates... for now until i find a perm solution

Started on my headlight a bit. planning on switching it up a bit. but keeping the semi oem look.
relocating the turn signal
and then adding the bug eye parking light where the preexisting turn signal was. Still have to sand and buff the headlights but this will do for now. gonna make a new harness soon to plug and play into the oem harness. i dont like splicing into the oem parts..
