That kit is the Wings West kit.

The Fenders are the Shark Racing Z-Shark Fenders. They are some what involved to put on, but something the home mechanic should be capable of. It's a lot of bolts, and clips...and you have to make sure the fender is lined up where you want it...then drill through the fender for your bolts, and then re-install all of your clips and bolts...

If you drill in the wrong spot...your fender will not line up.

Kim, I assume the side skirts were on before you had the fenders installed...I suppose you had to remove the skirts to have the fenders fitted?

I would like the fenders myself, but I have had my skirts blended in, so removing them would probably make them look sh!te.

Nice ride BTW smile.gif Do you have any more pictures, these look a little out of focus, or have they been re-sized?

Actually, I had everything professionally installed painted at a shop here in Wisconsin. For everything, it cost $1500.00, but that included more than just my add ons being installed and painted, I had my whole car redone (painted). The fenders line up really nice, you can't even tell they were changed. The only problems I had with the fenders when I got them was that there was A LOT of cracking in them and one corner was completely gone, so all that had to be repaired.

The kit cost me $500 with shipping because at the time, (I got it a year ago) I found a guy who was a distributor of WW and he was selling kits on Ebay. I wrote him and asked if he had the kit for the Tiburon and he did. I got a really good deal on it, it's more expensive on the site. And it's polyurathane.

Z, the pics were shrunk by Random for me cuz at home I'm on webtv (not a real computer) and it doesn't allow me to do things like shrink my own pics or focus them. Oh yeah, and it seems to me he put the fenders on before the kit, but I'm not 100% sure.

Actually, you don't have to remove the SS to install the fender..but if they blended the SS into to the stock fender...that will have to be re-done....

The photos have not been altered or resized, that's the way they looked when I got em. The are just darn blurry. It's either the camera, or webtv.

I know everybody thinks my girl's ride is tight. She finally got the car posted on the board. Just need some rims(17's of course) and it will be straight! Everyone in Milwaukee is on choke when they see the ride. The body kit on the car is tight as well as the body kit on the lady. The measurements are perfect.
Oh by the way QUIKTIB, sorry, she's taken bro.

"Bump" for Greenchaos,

Here are the pics of my Tibby w/the WW kit on it. I can't say they are the greatest pics either, but different then the ones on the ww site. I now have different foglights w/grills encasing them + these pics are w/out the 17's I got for it also. Hope this helps!

Yep, that's exactly what I want, (sans fender flares). Great looking car, Kim. I know it would look greak on my Cobalt Blue Tib. Plus I got 17" Millie Migilia Evo5s on order along with Eibach springs and dampers.

*sigh* I can't wait to see the finished product. Although it may take a year to complete.
