I think PRY HRD was referring to the wheel opening, cutting the back bumper cover and opening the radiusing the wheel-well? If not, then that my question, did you radius it out some and repaint, or simply just cutting the inner wells and tubbing? Looks killer, I see a bumper dragging soon!

He cut all the way to the shock tower. It is a completely stock style suspension car. The rear LCAs are skinney and will be offset over. The springs are 3in Afco springs with an adjustable Wolfe spring perch. The outside of the car hasn't been cut for clearence yet. That will be the last step. As it sits in there right now there is about 1.5in of clearence in the front if the rear is touching the bumper. It will be cut probably in the back only and have some pie shape plastic welding done for factory looks.

I have been thinking of doing this also. If you have time can you try to be detailed as possible? I'm sure alot of us would like to know. Is it possible to keep all factory suspension mounting places and mini tub? Also, is there any reinforcing that needs to be done once you get done cutting? thanks
