Hey boost, few questions:
- What are the flares made of?
- What size are those tires (overall diameter) 'cause they look a lot smaller than stock (could be just enlarged fender holes.)
- Don't you think that maybe you should mask those rims off? or the rims and the tires? (I see overspray on the tires... hopefully not on the rims too!
)
It looks good man, I like it... I don't think I'd do it... I prefer the flares that follow the body lines...
But its damn nice work... gotta love anything custom, especially when someone invests the time in it that you obviously do.
Keep up the good work man, can't wait to see the finished product!

the tires on there now are Michelin Pilot Mxx3's in a 235/45/17on 17x7.5 Racing Hart C3's. What looks like overspray is just dust from removing the million layers of paint on it now. I made the flares from fiberglass.
Its moving along pretty quickly, I have about 80% of the pass side done now, took about 5 days but about half that was spent removing paint. I hope to have it ready for paint within 3 weeks.
I also will be smoothing away the 3rd brake light, moving the filler door up above body line and replacing it with a motorcycle style cap, removing all molding and leaving the gaps empty(but painted), attempting to make a rear Carbon diffuser, and finally painting it a dark gunmetal with purple pearl.
Ill keep posting pics as I go.
