Thanks, but the Supervettes cars are not for me. They're just too damned wide. That rear fender looks like it has a goiter. I much prefer the stock widebody.

This is much more my speed. JSB....mmmmm.

didn't read through the whole thread, but you can get flush and stay functional.

HELLAflush, well that generally involves a stretch and massive neg camber, rolled and pulled fenders, etc...not that functional

Perfect. But is your front higher than the rear or is that just the way you're parked?

It's the way the fenders are cut and the camera angle. I've actually lowered the front more than the rear. RCE Blacks are 15mm front and 10mm rear drop. Then a set of RCE lowering front camber plates drop the front another 10mm.

^ beautiful wheels and tire sizes. I personally would have gone a bit lower in stance to improve the aesthetics of the car. But that fitment is spot on.

Nice setup! Personally, I would go also lowered it a bit more, reducing that the wheel gap.

Something similar to this.
