[QUOTE=NoFriegue,Aug 11 2008, 02:04 PM] I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but why is the fender designed like that? I mean, does it have an aerodynamic purpose?
I'm not criticizing, I'm just curious

without modification, no.
it's easier to modify polyurethane / plastic pieces by heat to make it fit and alter the shape a bit

but FRP / fiberglass / cf, u need to do step treatment work to make things fit.

I believe they are in the process of becoming sponsers and are now waiting for the sponsership to go through so they can post the group buy in the forum it belongs in...rather then the socal forums.

ouch. time for some 17x9 +22....

i honestly don't know why everyone is so conservative on a +40mm fender.

I don't know what the offset is on that car. It's still too conservative tho
