UAM fenders fitment question
 

Hey guys, i recently purchased a UAM fender, it is expected to arrive later this week, so i am getting quotes from body shops from now, for those who have had experience with the UAM fenders, how is the fitment of the fenders? And is there any kind of modification needed for them, how is the fitment over all any gaps etc that need to be filled, or is it a simple bolt on, any feedback will be much appreciated.

I would like to know this too! Mines sitting in the house waiting for another part to come in.. so i can have everything install one time

Exactly, just want to keep in mind any issues that I might encounter if any and what to expect

Hey Guys,

My experience was flawless...bolted right up. The mold was made from a modified OEM fender specifically to make sure fitment would be smooth. Good luck...and post pics when you install :tup:

Thank you for your feedback so this will not require modifications ie filling gaps or drilling for extra brackets etc?

The fenders fits like oem. Will require body work when painting thou. The fender is OEM modified. Have any questions please let us know.

That is pleasing news indeed thank you very much for that, can't wait for mine to arrive :D

I have a set of CF UAM fenders and though the quality is great fitment is never perfect with aftermarket body parts. I installed them myself with no previous body work experience and it was pretty easy. It does how ever take time to get them to line up with all the parts they attach to.

For those who do not know (and OP) you have to remove the headlights, front bumper, side skirts, plastic fender wells and factory fenders. This is all labor cost not even counting what it cost to have them painted. So dont get blown away by a higher price to have these painted and installed then it did for your rear bumper.

Thank you for your feedback, as always I understand that there has to be work done meaning removal of panels etc but the fitment was good right? There wasn't a need for further fabrication etc

So, how good/bad is the fitment on your fenders? Were you able to get the gaps/spacing looking like factory?

Please chime in :tiphat:

Sorry guys im at work just had time to check back in. I was able to get them to look as good if not better than factory IMO, but it took many hours to do so. As I said they are very good quality and will line up perfect given the time and effort which cost money, unless you do it yourself.

Also if you click the link in my signature you can find my build process on installing these myself.

Thats what I thought you meant. Thanks for the clarification. :tup:

That is great news indeed my fenders just came in this afternoon and will be installed on the car sometime next week, I can wait for them will have pics posted :D
