nismo2trd, if you car fit those wheels right, all the power to you, but its going to be a huge amount of work.

I think there is a set of vertex front fenders on eBay right now. I dont know if it will be enough for your application.

those wheels are hot! lol, i would never have the ***** to try that, but i think it will look sexy as hell. i say, if your going to have a drift car, why not go all out? i like the runner widebody myself...

this one has a different front bumper and it looks great in my opinion...





this one also has a different front bumper rather than the runner lip...

or you could just do what this guy did. it looks like the supra widebody...



this in another option, but i think your wheels may be too wide for this...



and then you have your extreem, yuck....



although i think i am the SC and Soarer picture god... thats all ive got.... plus the one already posted.

wow good luck with these!! They are extremley aggressive and I'm with Roo just BN sports or Runner will not cut it. You will need to go even wider.

If you hate stretched tires or are worried about curbing wheels... gtfo of this thread hahah

I run wide wheels, stretched tires and stretched tires just to **** people off.

19x9.5 -9 225/35/19 vertex 25mm fenders + 5mm widened
19x11.5 +1 275/30/19 25mm pull

225mm on a 9.5" wheel? I'm surprised they even stretch out that far!

The BN Sport kit will fit those rims without problems.

I don't know about the first in the US, but i have the only BN Widebody Soarer in Canada.




225s will fit a 10" without problems. Got them on the front right now.
