Plenty of guys on the [NYCMaximas.org](http://NYCMaximas.org) forum have access to that. NYC has what you need.

I personally know a guy on that forum who has a fender rolling tool. Most of them (members) seem to be in Brooklyn/Flatbush/Queens.

if you wanted an audi with flares, you should have bought the A6 4.2 and not a 2.7t. the wheel arches are almost an inch wider on each side.

Id drive this one but Id lose the fairy godmother wand exhaust, ditch the wing, get better looking wheels and do something about the camber- probably put it back to almost stock height. Then put an LS1 and T56 under the hood and drive the shit out of it.

This is my first time reading the thread. My Dad did that to his 1970 Chevelle so his 32" slicks would appear more stock. Oh yeah, he did that in 1972… It’s nothing new.
