Now comes the fun part of trimming those 100 pieces off to make them fit.After the first 2000 dollars of fiberglass trimming and reattaching you become numb to it.

| Looking at some of these threads and the amount of cutting that has been required on the shell would scare the hell out of me lol. Good luck, your braver than me for sure lol.

JamesK (10/30/2014)
Its starting to look like an actual car! Having a little trouble squaring up the body to the wheels. I get it pretty squared but I have one of the front tires that want to hit the inside front lower fender.
I had the same issue in mine, had to order a narrower rim for front left wheel, I was able to fit the same MT tires on both though, there is a pic of the change in my thread
Looking good!

Thabks Bat Vader and Unholy. Going to try and limit my cutting to a minimum. And yes I'm still having to be checked regularly on an EKG after seeing you cut the fenders Unholy. Haha.
Oh and I'm about to try and level the car to the ground. But i still haven't saved money for the airbag suspension. If i get my show height where i want it and then add the air suspension will it effect the body height with the bags totally deflated?
