Full metal wide body bagged 370z

A question that I have, and maybe this will change once the project is done, but why did you get the front fenders flush to the wheel, but then tuck the rears? I would think you would want the same fitment all around.

Negative camber in the rear is what he wanted, I assume

I wanted to tuck a wheel that no one else could even fit

Before you drive it make sure the shop switches your rear wheels around, the directional tiers are on the wrong sides.

There are people running 12 and 13 inch wide wheels on a stock body Z, you just picked the wrong offset lol

Is that why people mod their cars over there? Jesus.

That's the beauty of modding, we can mod for whatever purpose we feel like. This gentleman is doing it for stance and fitment, and is going about it in a really awesome way. There aren't very many Zs with a proper wide-body mod.

Rear is all hammered out and the rear bumper is started. He ended up making some tweaks in front fenders for clearance reasons.

I love to see custom work. Good luck with your project!

Mitco39 · 08-07-2014, 04:49 PM

That is one very good shop. Do they need a winter project? lol

It appears your modding the stock bumpers to fit... Why wouldnt you modify aftermarket bumpers and go all out since these custom flares are being done? just my $ .02

I don't want after market bumpers. I want to keep the stock ones. To keep all the stock lines. So when people look at it it doesn't look like the average widebody
