Niceee! As for tucking the front wheels... did you really have to go that high with the front flare?

i wannna seeeeeeeeeeee

decided last minute to flare the doors...took and extra 4 hrs each side but they came out nice...

I like it excited to see how this build goes and very interested to see it's final outcome. Love that you flared it into the door

Fenders wrap around the wheels like a glove....  too bad u couldnt take the car over yesterday, it woulda been killer....

The fenders are so flared, just imagin s550 flares on steroids..

you should pull a mold off the fenders..............i would by a set...:)

looking good Dennis!

interesting to see how much it wraps the wheel up front. I imagine you have to raise it pretty good to get the clearance to turn?

Niceee! i cant wait until i get my wheels back and go wide too! =)

gat damn thats wide in front!  ive been getting all kinds of jealous with a lot of builds on here lately, and this one contributes

[QUOTE=VIP-UCF;423129]Hmm...not sure what u mean by this?[/QUOTE]
looks like your glassing the rear bumper to the fender, are you gonna mold the kit to the body?

Incredible

[QUOTE=brainneeded;423132]looks like your glassing the rear bumper to the fender, are you gonna mold the kit to the body?[/QUOTE]

Lol...no way...its up against the car to help keep the same contours as the flares on the body

Love how this is turning out!!

ah okay! i was gonna say.. you crazy!

thank goodness... :innoutrofl2:

Thats going to be one sick benzo!

Love how the fenders are coming out.

This is srs bnzs.

Cant wait to see this thing painted, it looks insane

this project is still alive...at least its on the home stretch..maybe primer once more...
[IMG]http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k63/VIP-UCF/IMAG0141-1.jpg[/IMG]

Gr8 can't wait 2 c when finished....:biggthumpup:

ya i'm on air...running 3/8" line with slam specialty bags with homemade brackets...viair 480 comp, 5 gal tank and smc valves and water trap...pretty simple set up...nothing too crazy...just needed a band saw, plasma cutter, grinder and welder...

[QUOTE=BAHC;428437]hella flush[/QUOTE]

Herro Frush!

Your gonna bring the new year right...:biggthumpup:

Big work! post more photos when finished :)

do work! can't wait to see the completion!

Trying To make it out To wekfest

Awwwwwwww shit!!

fuck yes!!! cant wait to see this shit!! we HAVE to shoot after wekfest..

Waddup Dennis can't wait to see all that hard work pay off at wekfest :biggthumpup: 
Dope shiet

I am seriously on the edge of my seat for the unavailing of this project!

This bitch is going to be off the chain Damn

Alot of sweat in this build.cant wait to see it all put back together and finished

The suspense is building up....

Shiny

Yeah yeah, been waiting to check this out. More pics. Later.

Can't wait to see this beast in person! So much win.:biggthumpup:

lots of odds and ends that still need to be done...2 more weeks before wekfest so hopefully everything will come together...

right fender needs a repaint due to a catastrophic failue...first the line blew, then the bag, then the leader hose went out...moral of the story is keep a backup of everything...

paint came out decent...i normally wetsand the basecoat of a black complete but i had a line of cars waiting...after 2 years, i just wanted this thing done...and besides, it will see a few paintjobs in its lifetime anyway...i want to do fender vents and maybe dual exhaust later in the future...until then, i will enjoy driving this beast...

Dam bro, that just hit the spot!

Beautiful! Well done!

fucking sexy.

Oh yeah, cool cool. Later.

Just as expected..BOSS...well done...love it...congrads....

[IMG]http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k63/VIP-UCF/DSCF0844.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]

the fitment is amazing, but i'm not sure how i feel about the flare extending all the way to to rails like that instead of tapering off. overall looks good though.

deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeng dennis!

dammm peep out that sick ass radius.. Thailand aint got nothing on this one...hahha

Dang Dennis, came out great! Gotta see this in person

W0W! Loving it!

looks sick im curious what are your wheel specs, Width and ET

thanks

Love the body work and agree w/ OG on the flare.
Not feeling the Equips. Jus aint my wheel

looks good ! black just looks soooooooo clean !!!

fuckin pimp dennis.  came a long way from when i seen the tank just chillin outside your house like 2 years ago and you were telling me youre hoping to get started on it soon...i agree with OG on the flare from these pics, but i'll wait til i catch this in person

The flares are  extended To keep the big boxiness of the car...didnt want a lot of tire showing...also felt like.becuase of how wide these had to come out, it will blend better than a tapered edge...the wheels are 11 And 12 -10...i Dont remember 100%...

We. Catching up To thailand, they ballahs though..

ballas in camrys. lol.
 
props though, i don't know why but it's a different level of respect when you do it yourself. even if it didn't come out to my taste i know you got exactly what you wanted. it's not a case of just getting f**ked by an incompitent shop.

i can see what you saying about keeping the lines true to the car and its time period  they be 20s or 19s

Car looks great!!!

shit came out baussss.....more pics please

DOOOOPE!!!

Looks real good Dennis. normally I'm not a fan of the boxy Benz's but this I like.

ddammnnnnn dennis. u said youre gonna bring this to wekfest right?? im definitely gonna hunt ur benz down when im up there

when i was looking at the car, i can see what you guys mean by the tapered flare...i wouldn't say its 100% what i wanted but pretty close...I just want the beat to be done and enjoy the car...phase 2 will come with a lot more changes...i still have a Q and a LS to build...and an old school continental...not enough hours in a day.

hopefully they let me into wekfest...haven't heard anything as far as confirmation...we'll see whats up...

i never heard back from them either, granted i did register late.. but i did text ernesto before i did and he told me yea just shoot him an email so iono...in past years they had the list on their facebook but theres nothing there.

DAMNNN Congrats Big Bawseee! Are you riding on Air?

sick...i was actually looking at seans cars and was like dang i knew he had a lot of cars, but i didnt remember him owning a built benz haha
