what's ur back bumper? OEM?

you have to at least widen it, but if it is stock then no, you should go all out.

yea, but you definitely can't stay OEM.

as long as you widen the rear bumper. i've seen a few custom widebodies that widen the fenders but shrink down back to stock on the front/rear bumper. not cool. make sure you match the rear with the side flares too.
