    I'm on the fence about it as well, but I want to see what I can do with it for now. If it turns out to be a complete dumpster fire, all I have to do is peel the foam off lol.

    As a matter of fact, I have no choice but to scrap it. The width I shot for is highly illegal in my province, So off it comes, I guess I'm stuck with C-7 Carbon Fenders.

    dude, 2" wide on either side should be plenty. 4" wide is excessive.

    I've scrapped the idea entirely and am moving onto some different plans now. I ordered a 2010 Evo-X bumper and headlights.

    One of these you must get past 80%!

    You have some great ideas, but need to preplan to avoid your 80% wall...

    Waiting for the next.

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

    1. where ever you live sucks, lol

    2. that black widebody that was posted ALMOST looked good. They screwed up when they elongated the front bumper.......you have to shorten it to look right with our wheelbase. Also you have to change the geometry on the front end to work with super offset wheels like that.......hense why that car couldn't turn it's wheels more than shown. Just try parking that, lol. The side vents also need to go.

    Some of which I do, I finish, but for the most part I change my plans like I do my underwear. This Evo-X front end will be the one that gets full completion though. Right now the car is being stripped down, gutting out all the unessential metals, and a lot of electrical is being pulled out from the harnesses. After I finish the mounting for the Evo bumper/headlights the shell will be going for paint.

    Agreed but I sort of like the side vents.
