The mods look pretty cool. Talk about wide hips.
You do have a few options. Both are viable. I did the thin layer over foam to do my front and rear facias.
It's a boatload of work, but something I can comprehend a little better than mold making.
I used molds to make my head light buckets. I took short cuts and now it's a boatload of work.
Either way, it's a cool project and achievable.
Good luck. Here if you need me...

Hell, it was hard enough to find tires to fit your existing wheels.....now what? It looks like you can fit a 14" wide wheel?

Hey SCCA, glad to see you're still working on this project. Great progress. Did you decide on making molds or just building up fiberglass? One thing I figured I would mention, you can build up decent molds fairly cheap (ones that would be capable of 2-5 pulls) just in case... it would suck to have to remake all that custom work over a simple fender bender. Good luck with everything.

I have a set of HRE three piece wheels that I will replace to outer lip, which is 1.5", with a 6" lip. The inner barrel is 7", so the width will be 13" with a 355/30/19 tire on the back. The finished wheel will be about 2" further out than the 10" wheel on it now. I need to double check everything and make sure I don't need a 6.5" lip...
For racing I will use the wheels in the pics with a race tire made by Hoosier, which is a 275/35/15.
I think I will make a "skin" part and see how that goes. If the plug is undamaged, I will try to make a mold as well.
I'm going to look at a donor car tonight with an LS4.
