Ooops... didn't look that close. Just saw the blue and your car. LOL!

yeah that bugeye conversion was clean. I generally woulda seen the wheels and walked away... hate polished/chrome wheels... but the rest of the car was so damn nice I had to look at it. haaaa.

Yeah I recognize this hawkeye after clicking on the photo... It was at this years event too if my brain is remembering correctly.

ya it was at last years and looks like this years. i wasnt there this year so idk. but i agree with u Ray regarding the wheels. as if someone other than car owner picked out wheels (as if they didnt belong) but hey its his car and his style, to each his own. other than the wheels in my books, such a secxy car. both his and apetrons. cant wait to make some of my own flares for the bugeye!

next BAM im going for my own award. "the most diverse". lol im an 02 chassis, 04 tails, going for 06 front swap, looking into 08-10 gauge cluster and steering wheel, then i also have my 10-12 wrx exhaust project. except for GC, all impreza generation to date in one car!

diggin those flares! go so nice with OE sti skirts with chargespeed ad ones

Yea, I agree. If the 07 bugeye had a massive wide set of bronze TE-37s on it I would have had mega chub. But again, his car and his style.

25-38 offset is WAY too high for these flares.

Highest you can go to make them look right is +15.

Recommended is somewhere around +10 with a minimum wheel width of 10.5.
