Default Custom wide rear quarter's

Car has been in the body shop for a bit getting some work done. Here's the progress on rear quarters. Instead of welding everything and possibly causing some warpage on the quarter they went with a bonding agent. Stuff is tough as nails, you can tug on the fender and it doesn't even budge or flex. They used some fenders off of a civic. Now for some pic's:

Goal is to provide the same clearance as over fenders with more strength while losing that bolt-on look and maintaining the subtle line that runs the length of the car. IMHO it's looking pretty good

Looks awesome man! I agree, was never a fan of the overfenders because the rivet holes ruined the shape of the car's body.

How are they gonna make the bumper match up? Fiberglass? And what the circular notch in the front lower edge of the driver's side?
