That turned out really good. Have you considered doing the same to the rear?

Thanks Tommy. Yes I have thought about doing the rears. The rears have a double wall so I haven't figured out an easy way to do that. Some have left extra material on the inner skin to make tabs to bend over and weld to the outer skin. Others have cut both the inner and outer skins even and fabricated a piece of sheet metal to bridge the gap between them. Again, welding would be required. I suppose one could bridge the gap between the inner and outer skins with riveted aluminum pieces by cutting the inner skin shorter than the outer. The vertical wheel well arch could be salvaged as on the front and one might be able to rivet it on to the same aluminum pieces that are holding the inner and outer fenders together.

@@DailyDriverTracking Yeah it seems like the rear will be a little more complicated. If you do end up doing something to the rear it will be interesting to see what you come up with. Also have you considered adding any aero bits to the car to give it some downforce?

@@tommybenson5472 In addition to the newly installed front air dam I made a rear diffuser from aluminum sheet. It would only work with straight pipes. The straight pipes were too loud so I'll have to modify it once I get my new Cobb exhaust.
