mine's already in the works already ! =) Im changing it up a bit, since I'm sure some of us will have these, and id like to be different hehe, supposbly, after the first one was done, they did modifications so it would fit close to a stock fender.

Looks like V8_Aristo's fenders are being mass produced. I like them.

Nope. These are stock width.

I have the pre-production set on my car and it fits good, but the production model was modified to fix the minor fitment issues that I had. I sent out a set to a friend for his project car, and will getting a feed back from him in the near future.

Here's a couple of pics on my car.

I would prefer that the vent be placed on the wedge portion like the artisan spirit one rather than on the side of the fender. A little bodywork can fix that. It just looks like someone added the flare and cut a hole in the fender. Looks good but not functional.
