I have heard two versions of the Creative wheel lip mods now. The other source said Creative designed the tool for the factory to use to modify the fenders.

Normally, if a car was shipped out to an outside vendor, the route code & / or Y codes would reflect it in some way. I need to dig out the invoices / window sticker copies I have & check the route codes / pricing next. Hopefully a clue or two pops up.......
