Post Some Pics of your FD! :D <- Pics of your car go in this thread!!
Here are a couple pics of mine after being painted. Oh, and I *am* aware of the slight gap in black where the door meets the body, I turned her back into the body shop to sort that out (it was my fault, I initially told them not too because I thought they were suggesting an entire strip of black just under the window to stretch the length of the door...
Mind that they were taken with my cell phone... I'll probably post a full "build" thread for the paint process once I get the time.

Dude there's no way he got that much roll with just an Eastwood. There has to be at least some pulling and body work in it. I cranked an Eastwood to the point of breakage and I only got about half as much flare as him.
If you guys want more info i suggest searching on www.zilvia.net bc almost half the cars on that forum has pulled fenders and from what i read you could get some big pulls with a fender roller with out bondo/body work it just takes time.

A roller can get you a lot of extensuion on the fenders you need to know how.
If you know your stuff, heat the flares properly with a paint stripper or you have the facilities of a body shop heater you can roll the fenders quite bit.
You won't get this by just rolling the edge rather to start rolling a 10-15cm area above the lip.
It's like the pro custom bodyshop guys do and they can d o a lot with just a flat piece of metal

I think I like Sephiroths better than mine though haha. I like your flare job better Seph. I did one side of mine and I had never done it before, so a novice can do this Viking.
