    Ryan has improved his exporting from Mexico in the last couple of months. I'm honestly surprised he bothers with the 3/S market, but I'm glad he does. I don't know of any other after market body panels that fit as well as these.

    Right now small shipments get exported from Mexico 3 times a week and large shipment (semi trailer) every other week. I can order you a part that isn't in stock and generally have it shipped within a week.

    Hey guys, here's some results. If you want any pics snapped from any specific angles please let me know. I will gladly snap them for you. The alignment and seams are flawless. They also carry the same grain as the doors. This suff is absolutely gorgeous to look at.

    I will get some high res pics once I fit the entire CF body kit .

    WOW, These parts fit awesome!

    If anyone has any thoughts on what you get somewhere else... this is Carbon Creations.



    I checked the box when I recieved it. Opened the pre packaging in the secondary box. The foam wrap was undisturbed and looked brand new. Looked at just a corner because the package was undamaged.. When I went to install and unwrapped it entirely I discovered this... ABORTION! They actually wrapped it in the package like this, UNBELIEVABLE! Look at the huge crack... right at the bottom of the rear windshield...

    The seams don't line up, the edges aren't cut straigt, and it just doesn't friggin fit, AT ALL!

    I will never ever... Carbon Creations is a joke!

    Overall the body is 2.25" wider in the front and 2" in the rear.

    On stock fenders these tires stuck out around 1" (and that was with 1/2" spacers on the front fender forks to shim the OEM fenders out a little more). My tires are 12" wide on 10.5" rims. They finally finish on the plane of the fender. It's a nice improvement.

    but where's the fuel door?

    edit: nvm, looks like you've just fitted it so far.

    also, that sucks major ass about the trunk.

    These look so awesome. I cant wait to have mine installed. Think I can fit a 305 tire on a 18x10 +25 under these fenders? I'm on 265s at the moment, would like something a bit chunkier

    doubt it. 1" on either side isn't going to cover that much rubber. even without spacers, my 285's would probably stick out just a bit with these fenders. 305's would be even worse.

    This might work if the tires don't rub on the inside.. I do have coilovers which might help with this though.. I'd actually rather have a 315 everything went my way and it fit
