Default widebody fenders

Hey guys. i found a good body molding shop nearby my old job. i've contacted a person overseas with the widebody fenders with larger wheel arches (and maybe some othed pieces). i can have my bumper molded along with these fenders. i'd still have to check the price but i need to know


1. how many would be interested in these fenders in fg?
2. how about the bumper in fg?

Fenders I think will be a little hard to get support with. But that depends on price.

The bumper however, I know that should be easy to get support with, however, it depends on price too.

sure thing. i'm trying to get these copied and sold out before anything is done to my car, keeping the originals intact.





fenders will include front and rears. rear panels (not chassis) will have to be cut out and the new panels will be molded in. it's simple. another option would be to roll or pull the rear fenders out if you don't want to cut the body and just use the front fenders. these will only fit RD1, but i'm sure a body shop can make them fit RD2 application.

it all depends on price! i'm currently getting all of the information from one of our affiliates not too far from me. i'll do my best!

^there's a molding shop up the street from me. http://www.autobodycreations.com we could get both of our cars done if we solve the problem of extending wheel base. i don't think it's possible without spacers and we know what offset does to bearings. i'll keep you updated.

i have worked out a way to get them copied, but i'm sorry, there is no update on them yet. everything was good to go until i wrecked my car pretty bad into a curb. cost me $500 worth of damage. since then, i do not have the cash to buy and ship them.

if you need the contact, it's on the FS section of my link in my signature.

I thought I'd bump this. If you can get this going HKC I would be %100 on getting one possibly two sets.

Hey Winston! I follow and thank you! I'm anxious, but right now it's a matter of me getting the cash. The shipping quote is expensive. Shipping and handling are no problem for me because I have my resources and I don't pay customs fees. It's the cash.

I hate to keep everyone waiting. I'm still looking forward to this and have all arrangements ready, however I cannot pay for the entirety.
