Default Vertex Fender on 97+ stock body

I just bumped my fender and instead of just getting the stock on replaced and repainted I was thinking about getting vertex fenders. Do any you think it will look good on a stock 97+ body or do you think it would look out of place without a full kit. Does anyone have any full body pictures with the fenders I have only seen closeups of only the fender on the car and am curious to see it with the whole car.

I think the fenders look great on either body. If you really think about it the Vertex fender looks mostly stock except for the vent. Also Im pretty sure they are made of a strong fiberglass material since its from Vertex. So yeah, I say go for it! Maybe you will be the first to have done this.

I agree , it would be a nice subtle change.

Wouldn't look too bad, albeit I personally can't get past the vent being non-functional. If you do get them, make sure you get authentic vertex fenders, since they use a bit thicker construction on key areas to prevent cracking/warping/etc.
