Are those export fender flares? I was never able to find a complete set when I was buying export tails from Japan.

As always-impressive work sir.
I need to start watching the classifieds again- I need a donor for a section where the wheel well meets the lower section behind the bumper on both sides (rust .)




Coincidentally-do the Taiwan cobra bumpers fit decent?

pass quarter stripped and this completes the panel stripping of the car. Except for the roof and Im not stripping the roof panel since I’ll be cutting it out. Also did some work to the flares to get them fitting tight

Fitting side exhaust covers and cutting the fender flares for a perfect fit. Then clearancing the flares for fat tires and rolling the quarters to match up.
