Crazy work, so I'll play in with a couple questions, I'm assuming all the fabbing on the back was to widen the rear quarters a bit?

hard to tell from the pics what exactly you acheived because I don't see much difference personally.

Correct, he widened the rear, but you can barely tell it's wider. I remember Mark and I asked him a ton of questions about it when he posted his car as a "widebody" on FB.

Yeah 20x10.5 doesnt tell us much, what is the offset and what size tire are you running. If it is just to get a 10.5 +25 not sure if it was worth doing all that work.

No no... I meant to ask you how much wider are your front fenders and rear quarter panels.

i dont know the offset off the top of my head but they stuck out about an inch outside the body of the car before i "widebodyd" it..
