For working outside.

here's an update on the situation. big thanks to Billman for helping me out with getting the quarter panel. I took some pics of the inner structure of are cars. figured some of you would find it interesting. hopefully you don't see it in person lol.

here's another spot where the donor car was starting to rust. nothing serious yet but you can see how it would be an issue some day

around the tail light and the kick panel its just seam sealer that holds the panel on

took a lot more time then I thought it would to get the metal work straight

working on getting the bumper to line up

the fenders are a little over 27mm wider then factory. I'm looking at running 9.5 +35 with a 255 how do you think they will fit? rs3 or re11 most likely

the door gaps are giving me a hard time does anyone have a close up of there door gap between the quarter and the door. or give me an idea of the size of the gap at the top of the door? I replaced both my doors so I cant go off of the other side.

Any chance you can save me part of the donor car? (The part that holds the cabin filter)
