I know I won't be going as far as you did, but I really love the look, especially the rear quarter flares for fat tires. I figure with a 1-1.5" wider quarter, I can fit 315/35R17 tires with no problem on a 17x11 wheel with 5.5" backspacing.

Is that all factory metal that was just pounded out to form the flare?
Yes, the quarter panels are all pounded and stretched original sheet metal. If you look at them close, they do not go out much. Just a couple inches. Because the car is so low, most of the flare is room to go up.
