Depending on how extreme, its relatively the same as a fender roll price wise. A quality roll will run you $25-50 a fender, so if you need to roll all fenders and pull the rears it could be as low as $150 or as high as $300

A good rule of thumb though for good work is $25 a fender

Where did you get your suspension? Is it a custom coilover/bag mount? I'm very highly looking into this, so that is why I'm wonderin.

just noticed your sig, so you're getting CCW's? man, I've been wanting to see those on an 8 for years dude, I came really close to putting my Work's up or sale to get a set I can tell you whatever you want to know about bagging your 8, but I'm not going to hijack this thread so pm me or something.

Photoshop? edit: I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I've seen that picture before and it didn't have those wheels.

Hard to tell if it is a chop or not but the lighting seems off.

^I'm pretty sure concavity has nothing to do with offsets.
