Labor for fender flares

[JeremyE30autox]

Cool I will be moving to SM in the future due to the engine swap that is getting started. Wide fenders and wide wheels in the future. Big wing, downforce etc... Im jumping all in.

What wheels did you pick up?

So he used the pop rivet fenders to attach to the metal fenders ? Or did he use the pop rivet ones as a "guide" to make new metal work?

yep, I need these to clear 275/35/15 on 15x10 square .

Depending on offset, you will need more than that.

This has 275/35 on 10's and was hand fabricated using a parts e30 shell for the metal...

Took a ton of hours in labor but it's all steel construction with even the inner fenders welded back in, seam sealed and painted over.

I would gather you are going to spend close to $2k or more at a reputable shop for a "stock" look.

If I remember reading right the offset on the Condor car is pretty low with not too much backspace.

Those wheels are now on the 2002, but they are 4.5" back and 5" with 10mm spacers on front. Because of the wide-5 adaptors can't go back in anymore on the front or the brakes hit. When we were at the drag race we put the fronts on the rears so they would tuck without hitting the 1/4's on the launch.

What kind of spacing you running, Jean?

Offset of the condor wheels?

See post above yours. 10" wheels with 5" and 4.5" backspacing.
