Well while you guys wait for the other guy, here is a teaser shot of IZZYRX8 (lowered with rest stockies)..... still need an alignment though..
and possibly shave the bumper tab/liner/pull/roll a lil bit more depending on how the alignment goes
, Second pic is of the necessary camber, pay to play....right.

I love the wheels! Looking forward to seeing them in person. Compared to last year, there are a good number of aggressive fitted rx8's on legit wheels attending SevenStock!
Zumn, the fender got flared out a bit. It's easy to happen if the roller angle isn't adjusted, though some people prefer a flare to a pull. I know one of my fenders got flared out but at the time, my friends and I were serious n00bs![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Based on these pictures, I foresee some serious rubbing in both of your near futures, until a number of things are fixed =X

With a few extra fender work sessions, once I was more experienced, I was able to smooth out my fenders a decent amount. Admittedly, the original job was whack and they still aren't perfection, but that's what professional body work is for ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
The LM's are going to one of my coworkers <3

Lol, there's too much planned than to spill the beans here! To keep things short, ~5 weeks ago I ordered 19" 3 piece wheels that are a different style than anything else I've done. They'll soon be landing and built to my specs. I will say that 11" just isn't wide enough anymore ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Otherwise, for 2012 my car will finally see "normal" fenders and new aero.
My name on WheelFlip's "to do" board? o.O
