Here's my definition of flush (for comparison's sake):

Damn, SoCal, that is what I call "beautifully flushed". That looks just about perfect to me...but I am SURE that required some fender modding.

I think for some 'flush' means without the necessity of fender mods...and for others flush means with fender mods.

I like your flush though... but I would need a good body guy to do the fender modding correct. Sometimes good fender guys are hard to find.

There was "some" fender modding.

It depends how far you want to take it. You can do a moderate amount or rolling, tucking, and cutting yourself.

What is the exact offset of that setup in the pic? That is beautiful! How much fender work was involved?

Did you do any fender mods in the rear, and to what extent?
