    good luck. countless hours would have been put into those guards as they havnt just been flared. been lifted up so that the car can sit so low.

    not a simple task getting a car to have the stance that its got and for the car to actually work.

    what profile tyres are on your 15's?

    pretty much unless you really know what you are doing with a welder an angle grinder and a spray gun your not gonna be able to pull off a car like that. and even then i say good luck to you
