LOL. Definitely. My car was finished last minute. My hood wasn't even painted. Will definitely get that undertray goin.
A fender roll with the fender roller (not a bat) will only get you this far
Bondo and shaping from a pro will get it looking more aggressive.
Most people don't want to repaint their whole car, so that's why you seldom see it. But man, it gives very very good clearance. I don't hit anything at all.

Man that is so clean and I'm jealous of the wheel sizes you can run. Did the fender roller chip your paint? It sort of looks like it did or it didn't come out smooth from the picture.
I wonder if a body shop could just paint the fender part and match the paint well after a roll/pull. If you don't mind me asking, your body guy Makito is from what shop?

Here's my current race car project, the plan is to use in it in Australian circuit racing and tarmac rally events.
It started out as a good condition 1992 base model with zero modifications and just over 100,000km on the clock. I drove it briefly before starting to pull it apart. I put some Nissan GT-R rims (17x9) on it to check clearances (sorry for the camera phone pics).
