Yup, thats the one, I would only recomend it if you understand that the quarters aren't the right shape and will need a lot of work, but all-n-all worth it!

Don't worry, it will be cut down once the new wheels are mounted up and I know exactly where to cut.

What? That I am trying to have these remade in urethane but at the very least hope to offer then in fiberglass and will try to put mod days together where we send McNord around the country to widebody your cars?

I don't know what you're talking about...

If you produce a good quality wide body kit, count me in! I have been eyeballing your splitter and may be purchasing one soon. Good work on the splitter!

That's what you need to be doing. Klumzyee (Eric) used to do that and still does that in some instances when he's gathering interest for certain products. I remember throwing around the idea of $100 or $50 deposits when he was going to make the CME valances. People quickly shut that idea down though. He's a good guy to work with and he also works with a lot of fiberglass and poly manufacturers so you can get almost anything you want done right.

If they are good quality and I have a written guarantee of delivery with a deposit - then I would be interested.
