    Cutting out my fender arches...Round 1.

    I finally manned up and cut my fender arches out. I've been wanting to do this ever since seeing the Baby Rocket Pride. This is just a quick attempt to guage further cutting and flaring. Please don't make your final judgement just yet lol, I know they look pretty "ghetto" right now. I plan to get some bolt on jdm style flares to have a cleaner look. I want my car to be very low on 15s. Right now the pinch weld sits 4in off the ground. Looking to get around 2.5-3in. So I will eventually cut more out once the flares arrive. As it sits now, no rubs whatsoever!

    Only worked on the fronts today.

    And when I say ghetto, I mean done with a sawzaw, and some plairs lol.

    Well anyways onto the pics.

                    It's got a bit more camber in person, but I will pick up some camber bolts soon to dial in exactly what I want.
