Have you got the body kit and fenders squared away and ready for paint? How were the fenders, did they atleast line up or when you said body kit doesn't fit did you mean the fenders as well? I want to order mine here soon so I am curious how the extremes are.

well the right fender was bad, i had to trim a lot of it and has a big gap between it and the hood. (pic) the left fender was near perfect and only had to take off the inner mounting tabs cuz they were too short. the side skirts were probably the worst. door wouldnt closed so i had to cut off the part where it over laps onto the roclker pannel, had to trim both ends to make it fit. I havnt really gotten to the bumpers, the front we put it up and its gonna need a little trimming on the sides where it overlaps the fenders. Well mock both bumpers up and modify them this weekend and ill let you know the details. I only paid 380 for the kit shipped so i got what i paid for lol Oh, i origanlly took this pic to show you guys how bad the wheel sticks out its a 20mm wider fender and i have 8mm spacers i think ill have to trim the inside of the fender a bit and hope it tucks! if not.....fender flaresss!!!!

what the hell size tire are you running?

i have friends running the same wheels tucking on stock fenders, let alone 20mm wide ones..

Also your camber looks 0 or almost +, you should run atleast -1

sorry, its up on jacks right now. the rears are about -4 and the fronts are -1 to -2. im running 245/40 all the way around. im not really into the whole stretching the sh$# out of tires. I ordered all new rods/arms/etc. to fine tune everything.

i dont think so, worst come to worst you could remove the spacer until you buy thinner tires if thats an option..if not then maybe just leave the spacer off, i think theyll fit though, if they rub a lil oh well, i let mine rub the fenders till that inner lip was gone lol
