          Thanks so much guys!
          I'm getting the lips for my wheels in soon, and I'm extatic to get them on the car, and start working towards buttoning up everything.

          looks pretty sweet so far though, good luck man hope everything holds together!
          The fronts are fairly minimal, and the rears have a bit more, but definitely look like they have more than they do. We shall definitely see how it goes. But I plan to test the fenders out a little before finishing up the car.



          For the record, I found the car that I based my rear door line off of. Without a doubt, this boxy style car pulls it off A LOT better than I do, and I'm still debating on what to do about it.



          Had a very busy weekend, Gonna try to work on the car tomorrow since it's fall break for me:

                However, I'm currently on the fence as to whether it's good attention, or bad.

                Keep it up.

                  Without sounding like I'm trying to diss your work at all, because that's a LOT of hard work, but I was wondering why you went with a rounded style flare on a car that has factory boxy flares.

                    At first this did not please me. Then it did. This pleases me. In a weird way that i haven't figured out yet.

                        EXCELLENT question! I'm very glad you asked!
                        Subarus do have square fenders, and the people who designed it did a great job of making it look good. I would like to present you with a few pictures of widebodies that are offered from aftermarket companies for Subarus, and then a few pictures of VIP cars, whose look I am trying to replicate.






                        This is the nicest looking example I found, and it still doesn't look great.
                        As you can see, when you try to increase the squareness of the fenders, you get this bulky, fat, ugllyyyyy fender that just makes the car look fatter, not wider, or more aggressive.

                        The VIP cars, with heavy fender work, tend to look a look sleeker.
                        Keeping the lines of the car, but having widened fender arches, that work their way back into the stock lines of the car. It makes it so that so much tire is showing, and makes the car look so wide.






                        And even though my car has boxy fenders, it's still rounded a lot as well, and I thought the curved lines of would look a lot better than square fenders that would just make it look fat IMO.

                          Let me give you guys some updated pictures of the fronts.
                          After sanding some more, and a quick coat of spray paint, just to see if there were any imperfections, the fronts are looking close to done.

                            Yeah it is looking really nice and I am waiting for the complete image of the car, but I am too concerned about the rear door. Any way good job.

                              Why does your passenger side rear not look like it has even been started on in that middle pic ^^ ?

                              And hit me up on Monday to do something.
