    Plastic welding it is one way. Another way would be to use a Lord Fusor product along with their plastic reinforcing mesh.

    Here is an update of the work being done to fit the 18x11's this is with natural camber. Still has way to go as far as getting it all smooth and cleaned up.

    I had to order some extensions for the cylinders in order to get maximum lift. With those the lift should be crazy high. I wouldn't be surprised if im able to lift the car 9' of the ground and tuck 30's..lol Everything is going good so far.

    Its far from done. The rl has a slight beveled edge as you can see in first picture above i will be looking to keep that. Also since the pull is so aggressive i will pulling the bumper out to match the angle of the pull more as well dialing in the camber more so it angles with the slop of the fender if that makes sence.
