I need 3/4" spacers on the wheels to bring them out for a perfect fit! Oh and coilovers.

Those look great! Did you do the work yourself ? The reason I am asking is I can't find any one who can tell me how to remove the rear quarters.

​​​​​​​Yes I did. Love to paint. The quarters come off easy. There are screws in the door and trunk jam. Then you remove the outer tail light and reach in. Two bolts on the bottom and a combination bolts/nuts up the side(4) 10mm when you have all that off, pull and wiggle until they come off. The two screws that you can see but can't get to are slotted so the slide out. Hope that helps. Put some tape or something in the tail light opening, the edge is sharp. Not enough to cut, but uncomfortable.
