As you can see below we remove all the crushable metal and replace it with the composite fender. You can remove more material but we are limited by the "rear most suspension point" (rear subframe mount) and no higher than our front side window trim in the formula drift rules.

We felt that the rear track width was already very wide vs the front track width and the wheelbase. Which is why they are not 20, 30, 50mm fenders. They are available in fiberglass and wet or dry carbon fiber. Thanks for the interest!

This was exactly where I thought the application was meant. Quick swap of fenders for race. I love the fact that in the last pic, 2 Z's are sitting there. Not just 2 Z's, but 2 monster Z's.

Thank you for the information and response to my message. Your team does magical stuff on the track. Keep it up!

Didn't see this. I need 2 inches of clearance over stock fenders for my new 12.5 wide wheels with 335 width race tires. Anything you have give that kind of Clarence?

Might want to look into Veilside or Tamon.

Legit!

I'm beating a dead horse but the 370Z is setup to take 305s with ease! Those wanting more than 10mm have to be running 13 or wider wheels other wise pointless.

all depends on the offset. If hes running negatives for hellaflush reasons he will need something bigger.

these are an awesome upgrade.

Not to derail here, but why would someone go for hellaflush or whatever they call the ridiculous camber'd and stretched tire on a wheel look for? Sponsorship??? It just doesn't work for me.

Now those fenders would be awesome if I were a track junkie and needed quick and easy access to a good deal of the rear section of the car.
