The fenders did help with the clearance running those offsets. Well aside from Japan you can search various junk yards. I luckily found them back east. Or you can always just buy the JP fenders, those are the same width as the Aristo fenders. They just cost $$

I don't care for the JP ones, not a fan of those fender vents. If my fenders get busted I'm going to try to get Aristo fenders and run some spacers and maybe BBK. So what's next? Looks like you're just about done with it.

I'm not done quite yet. When it's ready I'll show the next phase. I think only 2 people know what parts will be coming on the car...
