    Over fenders

    Yeah that is true. I have had a look at the AMS rear over fenders but can't find any measurments. I was going to have my arches cut away and bolt on over fenders but now have more options like pulling the arches and flaring, the AMS kit and god knows what else. Docwra if you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost you to have yours pulled and flared? My fronts don't need much more room to fit, it's just the rear end that need a fair bit of extra room.

    Over fenders

    Oh really? Damn. I emailed JDMFlares but not got anything back. Any others to recommend? I contacted Stardast but at £1,400 for the kit I'm going to give that one a miss lol Customer service AND fit, knightracer is renowned for being hideous, especially if they are "universal". I think the AMS ones Stevo posted are by the far the nicest and most complimentary, love the cut out front wings, but a member on here who bought the ams kit had to have extensive work carried out to get them to fit well. I dont wish to sound rude (not trying to be), but if you think this is going to be a cheap exercise you dont appreciate the amount of work needed, unless of course it just some rivet on flares. Nothings going to be cheap swiftyy if you want to it to look decent. I totally understand that buddy and no offence taken Initially I was looking at bolt on over fenders and cutting the arch away to allow for extra room. Trying to weigh up my options and decide which route I'm going to take. I do agree the over fenders Stevo found do look awesome and perhaps a chat with the bodyshop may reveal an estimated cost to carry out the work. I'm just in too deep to turn back now after spending out so much already on wheels, tyres and arms and what ever else I've thrown my money at lol. Just want to complete it now

    Damn that's thrown a spanner in the works lol. Both look awesome! So are your read arches pulled? Because you have got some crazy extra room back there! Best I have found is 54mm all round. Just going to check out those fenders you've found StevoD

    Over fenders

    Awesome! Thanks guys. I was looking at JDMFlares.com and their kit extends each arch by 2.25mm. I'll go check out knight racer now
  8. Yeah the pin clip things don't really matter because the bolts hold them in place. They are prone for snapping anyway. Drop me a PM with payment details and I'll get the payment sent over as soon as I can (currently at work) Thanks!
  9. Are there any damage to these? If they are 100% perfect I'll take them straight away as I snapped mine lol. Anymore pictures?

    Over fenders

    . The initial plan was to get some over fenders for the rear and blend them in to look 'oem' but further discussion with a friend and planning we realised this won't work or look right due to removing bumpers and side skirts. So now will be doing front and rear fenders YAY GO ME! Also grundy wasnt being mean or sarcastic grundy has spend hours looking into and is probably the best person to speak to about it when ever this topic arises 99% of the forum call it a cheap tacky solution to a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place Perhaps his comment was taken the wrong way. I understand people have their opinions but when someone comes to the forum for genuine help they should respect that whether it's something they would do to their car or not Ideally I'm looking for over fenders that are ready to paint and bolt on. But I do know someone that fabricates aluminium and steel for vintage cars bodywork so could get some custom ones made up. Are you getting custom over fenders made up bud? How are you going about it? Nice apology. Take it whatever way you want to Grundy. I'm not trying to be horrible or disrespectful. The way that you came across didn't seem helpful, just more of a dig because it's not something you would do to your own car. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but that's the way I believe you came across. I mean no offence and I apologise if any was taken

    Over fenders

    I expect nothing but sarcastic useless comments from Grundy lmao! Just wondered if there was anyone on here that have gone down that route for advice or even if someone distributes them on here. Thanks StevoD. Always get a helpful answer from you Yeah that's what I'm looking to do with mine more or less.

    Over fenders

    So I've got 12j et0 rota GTR-D on the back and with camber I'm not 100% happy with it. I thought camber would look good (which IMO does look good) it's not overly functional lol. I'm looking at getting some over fenders so I can cut out my original arches and bolt them on. I've been looking at the Stardast over fenders but can only see them available from Japan, same story with other over fenders but stateside. I believe I need 20-30mm extension on the rear but would be happy with wider as I can always slap on some spacers. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great!
  14. One year on and I'm finally spotted lol. I shall definitely be giving a wave if I see you flash me even though I'm more or less a zombie getting up at 4:50am haha
  15. This is mine and I live in Thatcham so wondering if this is what you have seen
  16. I'll start off by saying Adrian's customer service is second to none! One of the best, if not THE BEST customer service I have had from a trader. Updated every step of the way and Adrian even went out his way to make sure the SPC toe arms and lock out kit was shipped out before he goes on holiday, which I greatly appreciate! Packaged extremely well and very fast delivery from stateside to my doorstep! Already in talks about making more orders towards the end of the month! Anyone looking for great customer service, cheap prices and quality all round, don't hesitate to deal with Adrian he goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are satisfied with the service as I AM! Thank you Adrian for booking me up and I shall be in contact soon about the spoiler! Swiftyy.
  17. I'm from this area so wondering if it could have been mine you saw? Nismo kit with wide wheels? I could be mistaken
  18. Either I've not had a group PM or I'm not sure where this feature is lol
  19. You might do. You do look a bit shady comes to think of it Not to worry lad, just didn't know if they had given you an ETA.
  20. Is there any update on tickets? Thanks in advance!
  21. Brilliant, thank you buddy! Are these arms only available from the states or is there a UK dealer? Same with the lock out kit? Looking forward to having some handling again because at the moment it is beyond awful lol!
  22. I am running true coilovers buddy. Got the HSD mono pros on there. So I wouldn't need this part of I've read this correctly at 7 in the morning lol. Pointing out the parts and a dealer will be great Only so much I can take of the lack of handling lol
