I appreciate the sentiments, and the constructive critisism. A couple of clarifications though. the black between the body and flares is not a sealant, however it's rubber to prevent the flares from rubbing directly against the body. The tires are only slightly stretched, yes I am currently running spacers because I chose to keep my existing wheels. I will be fixing that at some time in the future. I am running a 20X10 +25 and a 20X12+0 with 295/30/20 and 265/35/20 respectively with spacers of course. I plan on going to a meatier set up in the future, possibly even dropping to a 19" or even 18" wheel. I have some ideas that will more accurately fit my theme. As with most builds they are always a work in progress. This thread wasn't meant to be a "build" thread, but to show something different. I knew not everyone would like it, but I wanted to show there were options aside from Nikko and Moonbeam. But hey on the positive side I won't have to worry about a bunch of copy cats apparently lol

Still, I do like the look and I appreciate the work/effort/money put into it. A few things I'd do differently but I definitely respect the work that went into it and it being different than every other overfendered Z34.
