Cwest fenders
Ok, so now I have to ditch my roll cage idea cause I F'ed up my OEM fenders. I like the simple OEM design that Cwest has to offer, so I'm convinced at getting these. Before I go purchasing these at my local shop, just wanted to know if you guys know of any other shops that are carrying these in stock. If not, thanks for lookin out, I guess I'll get these from my local shop and wait the months out.

More than likely nobody has these instock since CwestUSA has opened and they would now have to get them through them. The usual wait time is almost 6 months. I even contacted CwestUSA (last week to be exact) and they told me they do not stock these and they are made to order and have a minimum wait time of 4 months up to 8 months. Which is about right. So you may want to go with something else. Bulletproof has Varis FRP in stock and they are flared 15mm which is more than the Cwest and Ben says they are better quality. Since these are FRP just paint them.
Worse case scenerio is nobody has them then you can either wait or sell the wheels and get a higher offset set of wheels. Its up to you.
Ben from Bulletproof just posted this.
Plus I have one set in stock ready for shipment (in FRP with the carbon covers).
Good luck.

4 to 8 months wait . Are there any other fenders that are wider but look OEM? ASM I read? I'm just not a big fan of vents in the fenders, I definitely want something that looks OEM.

Not too sure. Js and ASM have vents if I am not mistaken. Varis is the other option.

ASM makes unvented fenders, I don't know if they come in FRP though. I know the CF vented ASM fenders do run close to $4,000. Have you considered pulling/stretching/rolling the stock fenders.
I'm just trying to think of what is most cost/time effective. Good luck

modify your stockers or go with the J's... if you paint the carbon inserts, it will look close to stock (moreso than say Varis)... otherwise, bite the bullet and wait for the C-West...
I modified my stock fenders (rolling 18x8 +34 and 18x9 +42) and have had no issues...

why dont you go get a quote from a local body shop that does custom work.
Last I heard, you could get it done up to 2.5" wider in the front + paint for $1500.
Would look comepletely OEM.
Only issue is, you have to leave you car at the body shop for 1 month.
