No,

That e-tard party isn't on my list of things to do

Moby would be sick but the rest of the lineup isn't all too desirable for me.

Good news is I just picked up tickets to LCD Soundsystem, if anyone here can appreciate that

Props for a *different* wheel choice than most FDs but I sure as hell wouldn't go that route.

That's also a 99-spec bumper (aka the 1999+ rx7) thus aftermarket thus not stock. But 99% of cars can look good with a healthy drop and nice wheel choice imho.

You would need to not only pull, but flare a bit as well.

Definitely not easy, I wouldn't exactly recommend it.

here's 10.5 +15 for reference:



I'm guessing they're coming from an evox? What wheels

may I ask what is involved in a pull/flare? Atilla mentioned you roll the fender flat basically, heat it up and just pull it out a little bit? or heat it up and use the roller to push it out?
