Those are some good looking tig welds on that stainless!
Finally welded the fittings to the LSJ valve cover and yes I removed the baffles before welding it up. I also used Eastwood textured black rust encapsulator on the cover as well as fitting this nice piece of carbon fiber for the individual coil cover. I will be using the the LSJ individual coil setup with this cover. Everything is wired and ready to go.

DTM style flares, just saying
DRIVING FORCE FABRICATIONS (908)866-1882
I just love that you are not running stretched tires!
15-20mm is going to be tough to hide unless you can do it front and rear and make the flares flow with the rest of the body. One reason I would say do it, is they are your main brakes. Not to mention you have not gone cheap anywhere else on the build...
I say no. You have plenty of wheel sticking out. If you do that to the fronts the rear have to go out more to even it up.

I vote move them out, and use thee type of flares...

I vote this, except molded on not bolted.
Actually, those fender flares look much better bolted than molded if that's the look you are going for.
A prefab fender flare will not work with my setup. I need a flare larger than 5 inches or so. I plan on buying the Eastwood Fab English Wheel to fab/roll my own flares.

i say leave it with no flares that looks absolutely sick! ....and true to the drift look!!!

Ordered the Eastwood Fab Slip Roller yesterday to make my quarter/fender flares. Also order the Vibrant Crankcase Evac kit with check valves, the rest of my fuel fittings and lines, the 22 pos weather pack bulkhead connectors for by front/rear firewalls, 1 more 6 pin fuse panel, the 1.5" stainless steel coolant pipes, and just received my c5/c6 spindles so that I can run the z06 corvette 6 piston and 4 piston calipers. I'm still waiting for my steering quick release and shift knob to arrive so I can button up the interior. Just playing the wait game at the moment for everything to get here.

This, X 1,000
Ben, this car is looking great. Personally, I would look at shortening your control arms a bit. Since you fabbed them with Heim joints, it shouldn't be a huge deal.
I'm all for a nice wide stance, but I think you might be pushing it too far. The rest of the car is so clean, I think overdoing the flares and wheel stance may take something away from it.
Hot damn!
