looking good Chris.. cant wait to see the rims.

I need to use a fender roller so I can pull mine out a little. I rolled them long ago (baseball bat), but chipped paint in the process on the rears. I'm thinking that you'll need the same soon..

Ha thanks man! I rolled and slightly pulled my fenders when I had the VS-KF's on the car. I have an eastwood fender roller if you want to use it, you are welcome to.

You can pull as much as the fenders can take..lol

my gs has about a 5mm pull on it right now, but here's a pic of my old 240, it had about a 15-20mm pull in the rear:

Pulling the fenders, is that something you do yourself or something a pro needs to do?

depends on skill level/mechanical aptitude.

I've done dozens of cars at this point so I'm fairly profecient(sp?) at it.
