haha, yeah that one! ugh, i remember going through the whole "exhaust sounds" thread where people spend a whole lotta money on different systems, and one day i found this clip and was like "THAT's IT"! sounds so mean. and being that low on a static drop in AZ isnt so bad, as our streets are generally flat everywhere. but i bet you gotta be careful wherever you are at. That little clip made me appreciate your car there man. Well played. Don't mind if i try the same recipe on my exhaust.

we originally pulled the fenders in the backyard while drinking and it came out ok. enough if your wheels had a slight poke. Since I am rebuilding the wheels to have 1" more lip on each side...it was pulled to accommodate that much. I went to Dream Makers in NY to get it done. He did a great job pulling everything all metal no bondo. Most of the other Liberty guys use him as well. I havent seen anything that is able to pull like that with a roller...If you do please let me know cuz id like to use him lol...all I can say is lots of patients...lots of heat...and cut that inner fender first! lol
