The car in the 2nd picture is alive and NOT wrecked. I drive it every day. It looks different today, as it no longer has the 17" wheels or airdam.

Wow, if so, I'd talk with Qwik510 about getting another Bof airdam on there, stat!

Anyone know for sure??
BTW, I still sell the airdams. PM me if interested.

That is my mechanic's car. It is alive and well, his daily driver. If I get savvy to posting pics on this site I can scan and post very old pics.

Arrg, ye pirates of the North -- I've found the key to the Kingdom. More recent pics of the Bofenkamp car...

My map to the ancient treasure is tattered but eventually I'll find the lair of the images from when the Capt'n still had hair (on his head).

No wheel spacers are used with these wheels. Campagnolo made these special for me with a 25mm offset. They are Magnesium. If you compare this cars front fenders with a stock fender, you see that it's wheel openings have been raised 3/4" for more tire clearance.
"Datsundriver" is my sister, and somehow has a copy of every photo I've ever taken.

Wow!!!!! ...... I would have never noticed,,, ,, that was VERY cleanly done.....

The front fenders never have enough clearance on a low 510 ......... did you cut the whole wheels arch off and weld it back on higher????

Yes, I cut it off, reshaped the opening on the fender, welded it back on, (added 3/4" of metal front and rear), and it was all done without plastic filler. I have a lot of photo's of when I did it in case I had to do anouther one- in case I ever had to replace a fender. Instructions for myself really.
