isamu ill pm you later... promise...

update... well... i was able to align the fenders with the headlights hood a pillar... but im still having problems with the door...

so now i gotta come to a decision.... either i cut the vent out and re adjust it... or i lay fiberglass on top and loss the cf....well see... its impossible to close the gap near the door ive been playing with the fender since 5... its 8 now..... and its only the passenger side

if i do cut it.... jesus... im not making it to both meets...

Just display the driver side during the meet!

Dont lose the cf, mod the fiberglass part instead, or cut out the vents and mod it into your original fender?

i got them from a member here.... i dont think he ever tried to install em... and your absolutely right its a 80-85% fitment... which is total bs.... it also sucks because paying such a high price 700 plus shipping which was 200..... you guys all know im not a happy camper right now.... the only part i thank god is the headlights hood and front bumper line up perfectly i would have been PISSED is those were off too.... im also really happy that i decided to install the fenders myself.. i know for a fact no body shop would even deal with the bs fitment they would have settled with the mammoth gap....

thats exactly what im gonna do..... imma cut and readjust.... thought about it the whole night... couldnt really sleep really... i was so irritated.... i dont wanna cut the oem fender... with how salty the climate is here.... those two things will eventually seperate... ill just re fiberglass the CS fender

great idea about showing only one side... i think thats what ill end up doing haha
