    Sooooooooo here are some pictures :











    The tires are 215/45R17 rear and 205 front.

    I am very disappointed I must say.. My rear fenders insides are full of putty which makes them impossible to roll without making any damage. I feel so fkg stupid I didn't think about that last year before painting everything. Im thinking of cutting the interiors to make space but at the same time I think it might damage the paint.. (Let me know what you would do!!)

    Plus the springs aren't as stiff as I though they would be, not a bad thing considering that the streets are garbage here (better they take the shock than the entire car I believe) but still doesn't allow the fitment I was looking for.

    On top of everything, my two rear tires keep deflating. I have no idea what is the cause and Im gonna have to find out as soon as I can.

    So much to do in so little time..

      I found the problem today, turns out the wheels weren't sealed correctly.. Gonna have them ready by Monday!

      And about my fenders, please tell me what you guys would do, I have no idea how to solve this without having to paint the whole thing..

            I found a solution for my fenders (FINALLY) and I'm gonna cut the insides and try to pull them out a little. I know there are some cracking risks but I have no other choice. Wish me luck!

                      More problems.. Today one of my center caps fell off and I only noticed when I got home. Luckily I found it later on the side of the street..



                      A car probably ran over it and now it's pretty fucked up.


                      Now

                      Before


                      The face doesn't look so bad but the sticker is pretty damaged

                      How it is

                      How it's supposed to be

                      I don't have time to work on it because I have finals soon.. I just hope it will be ok before Fitted Toronto..

                            Small update: my rear fenders are done!

                            A friend of mine did an awesome job and now I have plenty of space

                            Started by cutting what needed to go.







                            Then buffed it




                            Then added a sealant and applied one coat of peint and one coat of clear



                            And here's the final result


                            Pretty much the thinnest it can get because I didn't wanna have to redo the entire fender.

                            Hopefully the next update will be soon (new springs)... Before ordering anything, what do you guys recommend for a 1inche fitment with poke (rear) and 1inche fitment etperfect (front)?
