i wonder how many hours those cars in the pics near the top of this page have in the fenders/rear quarter panels. that work is uber sick. Nothing like huge lips and pulled/flared panels to accomodate em.
the 700/900's are a bitch to pull like that, basically you gotta cut opening on the belt line and pull it from there then add more cuts to the rear quarters, rear doors, front doors, I showed it to my friend at the body shop and asking how hard it'll be, he basically told me he rather make new mold for wide body kit.
the estimate is around 8-10 hours per pane, so you got 8 in total (2 front fenders, 2x front doors, 2 x rear doors, 2 x rear quarters), and add the side skirts and front and rear bumpers need to be re-shape, you are looking close at 100 hours? if you gotta do it outside, it'll probably run $5000-6000. then plus paint and all that, I can see why these guys did it themselves.
sam i think i like this thread more than your infamous chigga oogle threads of the past.
need to find more photos thou, there are lots of good stuff mixed in with not so good.
