Ok finally had a free day to pull the rear fenders. My oem hardware is maxed at 3* of camber along with natural camber to bring them in. Once again rear specs are 19x10.5 et-6. One eastwood roller broke, but finally got another one to do the pull. Took a while and pulled it a lil over an inch maybe 1.5". If i drop to a 235 series tire im sure the lip and fender would meet. Now I have to readjust the bag perch on the megans to dial in ride hight, parking lot height and well parked height i just deflate it.

SO since everyone keeps saying they like my car BUT...i need to do my headlights I decided to listen. 


I took them apart and cleaned everything. Then i wet sanded the lens 400-800-1000-1500-2000-2500. Here is the end result. I used plastiX to polish the inside and out just to give you an idea. I will be taking the lens to paint shop and have them clear coat and further polish the lens. Then i will retrofit them with audi TT d2s type HID projectors with a 3.5k or 4k heat range (which ever is pure white). 


My question to you all is do you wet sand the inner housing clear corner marker lens?
