I like the look of it, but I don't know if I believe the offsets are really that low. Most of the comparos that I would be able to envision would involve 18" wheels, but still.

You used a hammer on your fenders?!?! What's wrong with you? If you're interested in doing something, at least do it correctly. You've just jacked your car up and it's going to cost you even more money to get it looking right.

I'll give you this much,

at least you didn't stretch skinny tires on them for the sake of attempting to make them fit.

fitting insane offsets isnt a one step process. the entire process costs money to do correctly, he only showed you step one.

Thats like saying a car that is primer'd is "jacked up" ...its just one the steps...next is paint

hammering them out is just a step to smoothing...primering and painting...

im sure it will look great in the end. and it will be different than the bandwagon 60+ offsets
Or he could have just used a FENDER ROLLER and not made his car look retarded in the process.

A primer'd car being driven around IS jacked up. Why primer it and then ruin the paint (unprotected) by driving it around on the steet?

Jesse James shapes metal initially with a hammer, then runs it through a machine to smooth it and shape the curves. He's MAKING something. This guy is just reshaping the fenders and there are tools to do that much more cleanly.
