Swiftyy Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 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!

Grundy Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 You've got your Answer, anything like that comes from States/Japan. There's no UK suppliers. Either go custom or go import. You wont get much response from here other than hate for the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpilot Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Going to look a bit odd if you just do the rears imho, if that was your plan? Perhaps have a word with Docwra as he had had his modded to suit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps have a word with Docwra as he had had his modded to suit. . 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 I expect nothing but sarcastic useless comments from Grundy lmao!

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. In the process of doing mine. Are you getting custom over fenders made up bud? How are you going about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
