Were the quarters cut underneath the widebody panel? Do you happen to have any pictures of that area? I'm installing this kit and trying to get an idea before I cut! Thanks

The rear quarter was cut but I didn't install the panels myself so I am unsure how much. The car hasn't had the suspension fully finished so I am also not sure if it will have to be trimmed further once that's done. For some reason I am unable to upload pictures right now but it looks like 1/2" at the most. I will try again later to upload later

The rear suspension is finally finished. Toyota 8” that I built and welded brackets for, techno toy tuning radius arms, panhard bar, drop brackets and coil overs.

The stance is still a little tall but I haven’t adjusted the coil overs yet.
next is rear brakes and brackets, front and rear brake lines and new master cylinder.

Rear Louvers

I scored a set of rear louvers off FB marketplace. They are in good shape and came complete with the mounting brackets

Are you saying those are stock FC caster camber plates?

Looks like he's using a FC front subframe, so yes, those would be FC camber plates.

The camber plates came with the FC coilovers. The holes in the inner fender bolt holes had to be opened up some to get everything to fit.
