Default Custom Widebody

Before you all get your panties in a bunch... it's still a work in progress.

Sideskirts, splitter, and canards are not yet painted. They'll be done this week in the same gloss black that I had before. The rest of the car is resprayed including the bay (same color as before).

Front bumper is modified to match the fender arch.
Fenders are widened, radiused, and reshaped. 100% metal work.
J's Racing sideskirts were rounded off to match the curvature of the front bumper.
Quarter panels are widened, radiused, and reshaped. Again, all metal.
Garage Defend rear bumper is flared to match the quarter panel, reshaped, lowered, and cut to accomodate a quad tipped exhaust (coming soon).

Wheels are off the Shelby Series One super car and redrilled to 5x114.3.
Specs are 18x12 +28, 285/35/18 rear and 18x10 +22, 235/40/18 front.
This is NOT the final wheel setup. I am rebuilding my Leon Hardiritt Ordens.

I also didn't wash it before taking these pics.

the radius-ed quarter panels give the car a more athletic look in the rear. looks great with those big wheels.

beyond amazing.

Wow, that looks fantastic. I think this is the first time I've seen J's sideskirts look good.

albeit im not a huge fan of the flush/stretched tire/slammed trend... you're car looks better than i had expected. seems like you modified the fenders to fit those sized wheels instead of just running -10 degrees of camber this time

lose the cusco death bar though
