Car looks Great!!!!

One thing I noticed on those fenders.... Although they look wider, it looks like the design restricts tires from actually being able to move under/inside under compression.
maybe it's the angle I'm seeing it from?

If I had soft springs and i was lower then yeah, definitely! but I sit pretty high and I'm running 12k springs, so I think I should be ok.. Plus they weren't really meant for 295s up front LOL I think the widest they ran on a test was 265, but the car was lower and on softer springs.

Hardly... it's streetable, but difficult in my opinion... it's SUPER sensitive... The clutch seems just wanna pop out at ya. It's pretty stiff but it holds like a beast

The first 1,000 miles for break in were the worst!! I feel like this clutch is for launching lol

I did it myself in my garage.

But I would highly recommend PRT Performance. Price is reasonable and he knows what he's doing.
