Just like the title says. Post any MKIII with a pulled, cut, or rolled fender and it could be a fender with some fender kit as well. Want to see aggressive stances with huge wheels and rubber made to fit.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Here's what I've done. Keep in mind this was the first car I ever painted and in fact the first time I have ever done bodywork beyond simple rock chip repairs so be gentle, ...
I didn't really wanna talk the lines of the car into too crazy directions. The backend is just a simple blend of the stock spoiler into the fenders to smooth out the lines a bit.
The front fenders are pretty normal except I vented them.
And the full side shot show something I was playing with to get a sorta shark gill assist for the air intake. (I think I'll probably drop them though...what do you guys think of them?)

And here's a buddy's car he got with really ugly baseballcap like flares originally. So he left it for an afternoon or two and I tried to see what I could do with them. Unfortunately I have none of the totally finished shots anymore.
And the mags for the my ride after I polished all the old grey powdercoat off and shined up the alu a bit. Also chameleoned the spoke inserts.

the rear is a pain in the ass but do-able
Very nice man. Looking forward to seeing it person at an event.
This is what I was looking for. Look at that rear fender, pull and roll properly and aggressive. I even think the picture doesn't do it justice. I'm sure in person it sets off the car completely different. Very nice! A+++!
What are rim/tire specs? Body looks stock. Anyone else that posts would you mind listing specs like rodel did and any body mods?

Ya, thought someone might notice that......
Well I spent a few months last year, from mid Dec, till about mid may gett'n er all niced up, basically a frame up nit pick every detail sorta build and posted my new pics to my facebook profile at about ninish PM, exactly three hours after I finished the car, last wetsand and polish my ex-girlfriends new boyfriend was outside my garage so I chased the f'n so and so away thinking he had not been in my garage as of yet. In the morning I found out I was in fact wrong. He was on his way out of the garage when I chased him away.
He's not the brightest bulb there is and they got some really wonderful full palm prints of his visit and promptly arrested the guy the next day. He already had 5, yes FIVE outstanding warrents for his arrest already, including, home invasion while the occupants were asleep, B&E, Trafficing and possesion and finally assaulting a police officer, then they added my new one onto those. It's my understanding that they have him under CLOSE personal supervision for the next few years now.
My issue with him is obvious, clearly my scumbag sensor was dead on. His issue with me is that her entire family has attempted numerous interventions and just missing them by minutes at times and he feels he should be allowed to burn through this young girls savings without people who actually care about her inturrupting it and causing cashflow toward drug problems.
But I've washed my hands of the whole thing, you can't save someone who will not and tries to prevent any possiblity of finding an out. She wants to be there, I accept it, her family still however...........
But I cut that cord last summer, but it sorta took the wind out of my sails and the car remained unfinished for that whole summer. And I was just about to give DriftMotion and others a call here this week and see if I can't get all the parts assembled yet again (stolen earlier by same loser around the same timeframe, injectors, t78 turbo, all my old school HKS gear and I used to have it all too. But I'm rambling)
So anyways, I MUST, I NEED to get my car up and running with some big numbers like it used too be (550+ RWHP 7m now a 2jz) because nothing bring a huge smile to my face like ripping around in my arrest me red beast.
I am the original owner infact! So not driving it for like 3 summers in a row is killing me big time! And I like to race my brother at the local strip here on fridays he's a 300zx guy.
The cars almost finished (again, god I have a serious case of carple tunnel shoulder elbow and arm from sanding if thats possible, LOL. I didn't get it as nice as the first time, but seriously it's hard not to get really sick of everything being red and knowing that the last time you spent months and months it only lasted like 3 hours. But I try to laugh it off.
Was the hardest thing ever not to go over and "visit" the guy with a shovel and call the cops instead. I mean you havbe no idea, the guy took one of my cats! Seriously I thought the general rules of the world were you never f with someones, car or pets!
Course I'm probably mush nicer then most and I find ethics and integrity seem to be in short supply or even unkown these days.
ah well.

Yup they are functional, time patience and carefully dremeling them out brought them to life. They helped me seriously big with my underhood temps. Night and day actually improvement wise.
I'm planning on showing my steps for the vents, the spoiler blend and my clear acrylic painted on the backside super slick moldings here as soon as I finish the car and get some ME time in it. The moldings are really super nice they sorta prism in the sunlight yet still carry the color of the car and can't be chipped or scratched because the paint is on the backside of them. They are also the same thickness as the original factories but just flat without the extra "sub-molding" so they look cleaner overall. I'll see if I can dig a teaser pic up for you this week.
