id be willing to do the front on mine like that with a helping hand from some1 who knows what their doing. are the rear quarter panels just flared with the oem lip bent out or what i cant tell.
by the way pecx i think i know where u live off of hw6 at those apartments u are literally like a 5 min drive from my house. i went into the complex and left a note on ur blue hatch wanting to buy it thinking it was some1 else i also saw the levin coupe around the back.

it's ok.
i'd push out the bottom half of the fender too and rivet some aluminum to fill in the space.
i may try it on the coupe.

I agree with CBR and yea if i see some one do it and it turns out good then I might just give it a shot. But please take ALOT of pics if you do it and make a clear HOW-TO.
