great parts man :tup:

looking good! waiting for more info!

it seem like that kind of fender is getting more and more popular as time goes !

Ive seen a few cars going that way (late 2012 / 2013) :tup:

man your car is coming along great!!!! i love the detail you did with the side skirts.... it flows with the fender nicely and doesnt looked chopped off

Thanks man! Yea the car is coming along great. I'm super excited for it to be finished and back home!

Are those fenders widened?

Yes

..thanks. Any more details?

How much wider?
Did the wheels/tires not fit without this?
Was the body shop able to do it without repainting/cutting the fender? (I see that it's cut for other reasons, I mean specifically to make it wider.)

Inquiring minds want to know! :)

Originally I just wanted the fender cut for design and wheel well venting purposes, but when I finally put the new rims and tires on we found that they were in fact too wide for this car. So the custom widebody build began. The fenders were pulled out to match these rims, I plan on keeping these until replacing them with Tc105n which are the same width and offset so. I dont know exactly how much wider they are, I'll have to find that out. But I am picking up the car tomorrow morning so expect some teaser shots tomorrow night. Then being prepped and will be on the track friday!

more pics?

Almost done!

very nice 'work in progress' keep it up. I love it

:yum:

Car going back into shop this weekend to get custom rear amuse to line up with widened quarter panels. Also got the material in to wrap the car, so as soon as the car is back I'll be starting on that. Next will be suspension mods!

Btw, these stoptechs are amazing.

Are you concerned about rocks from your front tires pitting that beautiful fender work?

Yes that is one of the reasons I am doing a wrap on my car.

The build is amazing! If you havent already bought the vinyl, I have some 3M 1080 matte dark grey I'm selling.

Thanks! But already have the vinyl in.

my jaw falls off my face everytime i check on your build man.... damn you for having those hood latches.... it makes me want them just to have them :) they look amazing not to mention the body... straight up sex right there

i am still unsure how i feel about the fenders.. tho I am partial to radical fenders

That's ok. I LOVE them. Thats all that matters. :driving:

Get them! They aren't that expensive! Check amazon for best prices.

never said my opinion matters... lol hell I have a Ben Sopra GTR front in the works for my Z...

I like them, they look good, I just think you need more cohesion in the front..

keep pressing man.. looking good, hopefully someday I can meet you on the track and show you whats up :tup:

Awesome build.

A ben sopra front? Im interested, any pics on the progress so far?

wow man your right... what are the benefits of getting the pins other than aesthetics?

His pins actually pin his hood down to the frame.

:iagree: when I hit 160mph the hood flutters alittle.. hood pins would prevent the hood from SMASHING into my windscreen

this is just the rough design, but it gives you a good idea

I also have a few variations of the design as well

Dude I would pick that up in a heart beat. that looks really good with the 370. How are you making it tho?

I think he intends to have a company like carbon signal start with a nismo front end and mold and mold some more. :tup:

Not much for body kids but this is a nice build.

using an existing NISMO front end..

if you mean FPR, poly or CF, that would be dependant on the end user as I am sure we can do anything you would like
