I used a jack and a steel pipe to roll the fenders on my old accord. I ended up with bacon fenders. Looked like sh*t, but I did get hungry every time I looked at it. Mmmm bacon.

Oh google...I saw a beautiful 5th Gen Prelude yesterday and I wanted it. Such a pretty little car.

It actually worked out really well better than the baseball bat method

I may have asked this before but I can't remember. What do you guys think about Nissan emblems. I'm trying to figure out something to do with the rear emblem and the front grill/emblem but I can't really decide.
I almost want to go mesh up front with an offset lower case g and then just leave the Infiniti logo on the back like it is now, but lower on the trunk. More centered. Not necessary lower.

Regarding the centered trunk Fuji... here, this is a mock-up:
Notice how the Fuji is lowered so that it is proportionately centered between the line at the bottom of the trunk spoiler, and the crease that runs between the tail-lights. It's about a 1" drop, maybe less.

Oh, wait, you like in Canuckistan. Canada Post blows dead polar bears -- it'll take 4EVER to get there. And you'll pay a ridiculous VAT for a small part of a dead tree.

For the trunk emblem I was going to tape from one headlight to the other (same height) and place it there. But I was thinking about painting my emblems with some left over paint from my bike. It's called aluma blast from Eastwood. Cleared in automotive satin clear coat. I stole these from my Instagram. This is what I was going to paint the headlight housing trim and grill with too. But I changed my mind because of my next wheel purchase. Going to run polished lips. Square setup. Aggressive fitment. But not aggressive enough to roll and stretch
