wassup tommy,

I saw your car today at apex, great progress. They did a great job making clearance under the rear fender, definitely not a slap on job .

oops- i had a brainfart. for some reason i thought they were the RE-Amemiya rear qtrs, but looking at it again- they're the feed ones. I'm pretty sure those came from chuck, which answers my original question.

That the work from Apex Auto Body? Maybe I'll drop by and check it out in person. Bee told me about that shop, it would be great to see the kind of work they do, let us know when it's finished! Looks great.

you should get the feed front fenders to complete the widebody look. also you can spray expanding foam under the quarter fenders to stiffening them up.

Yeah, there is a Group buy on the front FEED fenders over in Chucks/RotaryExtreme section, ending 3/31. He said he'll even match the GB prices for the rear fenders too, for those that do not have them already. I really like these fenders the best, too bad the GB came a crappy time for me. We'll see though, might get rid of some other toys to get these.

What are you using to mold the fenders in, BTW? Lupe/Eric mentioned something about duraglass (?) something or other for his mold job.

BTW, did you ever measure how much actual width the rear fenders add? TIA!

Then you come back with the white. That look is very, very hot. Well done.
