Thanks! If you really think about it the swap not really as tough as people think it is. Just nuts and bolts!

haha, i think i will keep these since this is only the second set i ever brought since i owned the car. The offset for the front is 40 and the rear are 45. I want bigger tires. Trying to give it a nicer fit. I probably go with 255/40 next time.

Day 4

Sanded down the whole car. Still have some body work to do. Today i work focus more on flaring the fenders out.



Before flaring out the fenders more. These were rolled before.


The after pic...


Same with the other side. Picture of how i flare them out. I know i could do it a different way but this way was easier for me.


After i rolled/flare my fender i will add panel bond to seal that gap up and to keep it from rusting.

Since you are doing all that fender work why not get E39 fitment wheels for the rear? Are you planning on using spacers in the rear?

Just when we didn't hear from you for a long time you pop back up and start a DIY paint job again. Can't wait to see the end result!
