Default Vertex fenders

I plan getting the Vertex wide fenders in a few months and I was wondering if any after market side skirts work better than others for it, is there any clearance issues, anybody have some mounted pics I want to get an idea of before and after and some other shots of them on the car

Damn they do look sick..... does anyone have a pic of an sc300 from the front with vertex fenders? I'm skeptical about them because since they're 25mm would that make ur sc look fat from the front? lol

I have them, no they don't look fat. Aside from the vent, you barely notice them

they are fiberglass correct ?? If you would have wide rims and you would need to roll ur front fenders how would that work with these or are they just wide enough

Yes they are fiberglass, but very strong! I had them and I never had to worry about it cracking or anything.

Wheel wise you can fit wider rims for sure, however, the fender has a liner as well and because it's fiberglass, you cant roll it, I just end up cutting it.

You cut it? What's are ur wheel specs? I thought u could fit some super agressive wheels on them since they're 25mm wider

they are wider, but just like your stock fender, they have liner, which means on paper is 25mm wider, but in reality, not so.

Yes - although I doubt the D-Max fenders will fit like the Vertex ones.
