Looks good. I don' think that drastic a pull was necessary, but then again, different body people have different techniques. Props to trying it out.

Any update?

[Akfahad]

^^not yet...damn shop is taking its time with the body work. I've decided to keep the 10.5's for shows and local driving. Anything else I'll use the 9.5's. Trust me, I'm anxious to get her back and start driving again. more to follow

[GzNutz]

Nice. Can't wait to see the finished job.

[GregSolara]

Sexy as fauk stance. I wanna drive that lol

[Akfahad]

car will be ready Wednesday....

[Akfahad]

Car is done (for the most part). The front adapter spacers I will be taking to a machine shop to shave a few millimeters off so there's not so much poke in the front. I probably should've gone with 225/35/19 tires for the front so I could tuck more if I wanted to but I get no rubbing unless I'm hard over pulling into a parking space or something in the front. I don't have updated pics of the 10.5s in the rear yet, but I was able to use my old 10mm spacers and get the machine shop to shave them to 3mm so I can use the 10.5s if I want. Still rubs slightly in the rear over bigger dips, etc. but about the same rubbing I had with the 7.5s and a 25mm spacer from my old setup. Anyway...here's some updates. More pics to come (again) once I get that front adapter shaved down a tad.

- this picture does not do it justice, better in person

Rear view of the right rear quarter panel with the 9.5's:

holy f***** hell i didnt notice this the first time. did you do this yourself. i saw the second pic and it looked pretty rough but the 3rd pic of the finished pull/stretch/bend/holyhell fender is awesome!!! did you DIY or did insurance take care of it???

[Akfahad]

^^^had a body shop do it (out of pocket expense). Since I knew it needed to be stretched, I didn't want to do it myself which I did in the front, but this requires someone who knows how to do body work.

[Akfahad]

Took better pics this time around rather than in front of the body shop. Pics with the 10.5s will have to wait.

[ToyoSolV6]

Damn thats a fat ass lol! dude it looks so beautiful! Around how much did you spend at the body shop just for the pull?
