I like how the wheels stick out past the rubber. Helps protect the tires when you curb them. I have the same on my cart...

End results look really good! Well put together. Good teaser too, wasn't expecting all the other stuff besides custom fenders.

Car looks great, and I like the fenders alot. Are you able to retain the plastic fender liner with these fenders? The front lip, side skirt, and rear lip do not appear to be molded in the sense that they (front lip/bumper and rear lip/bumper) dont look to be one piece. Is this so its easier to fix in the event you get into an accident, or scrape your front lip?

they're molded, I didnt want them to like a body kit so I told the body shop to leave the lip lines.
The fenders are oem, so the liners and everything are the same

Got a quote for front end clear bar yesterday for $400. A friend told me that he might get me a better price Monday.
