Did you guys use much bondo on the front fenders? I've talked to a few people that did it on their own and it seems like it's going to take a lot more time than what you said. Yours came out great though so maybe you are just more skilled.

I believe the fronts used a bit of filler for the final stages of smoothing it out. But then again, the body shop did it so I will have to get back to you on that.

As for the rears, I plan on using a tiny bit of filler to smooth the hammered areas. I will post a pic later this week after my finals .

Not a big deal but the side markers are facing the wrong way. =P

Really? LOL I didn't know but I will look into that later! Thanks though

Do you have many pics with the rpf1s on the car? I'm thinking about getting the same size but will be running 255 star specs on them and was wondering if there were some other shots that showed exactly how they fit.

Did I see somewhere it said you had -3.5 camber all around?

I don't have anymore pictures of the RPF1s but I can take them later this weekend if you would like. I fit them with 245/40/17 all around and it was pretty damn easy to fit.

Fronts: Keep in mind my front fenders are flared. If you are on OEM fenders, a slight flare should suffice. I ended up going 10mm more aggressive and I still do not rub AT ALL.

Rears: Roll it + Relocate bumper tab. THIS is VERY easy. My rear fenders were very minorly rolled and it didn't rub at all!

If you need any more help just PM me

If you don't mind that'd be great. I'll be flaring my front fenders just like you very soon so I'm not worried at all about the front rubbing. Even though they don't rub do they have much if any poke or do they sit pretty flush?

I'm on 17x9 +40 ce28s right now with 255s all around with no rubbing at all so I'm pretty sure the 9.5 +38 would fit fine. making that changes pushes the outer lip of the rim out 8mm more but it only moves the center of the tire off 2mm and I'm pretty sure I've got 2mm to spare with my fenders without touching a thing.

I'd jump for the rpf1s but I only want the normal silver ones.
