Yeah the fenders were rolled and pulled in the front and shaved and pulled in the rear. With negative offsets there really wasnt a choice. Lol

guess it is hard to see from the angle but i was thinking with lips that big you would have to have done some fender modding. any other pics you got of this car? fronts looked radius-ed was my guess. is that exhaust fireball or what¿

any interior or trunk mods?

As far as pulling the rears, it can be done but it does take a little work since the walls will separate. No radius done on the fenders yet. It has a slight poke since the camber was not added to the front on this photo. I will add some more pics shortly. I will tell you that getting negitive offsets to fit on the 3GS AWD is not an easy task. Took tons of adjustments to get it where it is now. But I am not done yet, there will be lots more.

Here is a front end shot from the same show. Oh and as far as the exhaust goes, it was a custom exhaust I purchased on line and had them moved out a bit when installing.

definitely an excellent start. a little poke is an understatement i personally think tucking is much more sexy than poking,, sounds pretty gay!!

some radiused fenders and another inch drop would really set this car off and make it a force on the US VIP scene.

good sheeeetttt!

Yeah she will be lower. I need to get the fenders pulled a little more and cut the towers and she will sit a lot better!
