Hey Everyone,
The previous owner folded the fenders inwards about an inch around the wheel wells. Please check out my pictures so you have a better understanding what I'm dealing with.

Would it make more sense to just replace the fenders, have a body guy work them back to the original shape, or tack in new metal?
Second question; (this may influence the first question) since the car is already modified (V-8 conversion), I want to go with a 'works' style, so I wanted a more aggressive stance. I noticed wire wheel suppliers offer a 15x6 inner laced wire wheel that gives a 3" wider stance. Has anyone gone this route? If so, would you mind sending pics? I personally don't care for skinny tires/wheels, but I don't want obnoxious rubber sticking out from the fenders. I'm okay with a modest flare to make it look right.
Thanks for any and all input!
Charlie
