I think I have holes too from the old sidestrakes. Cant remember.

FYI these are a semi flat black Work Emotion 16 inch wheel.
I personally think it would look better without the sides and rear, but that is just my opinion. I'm more conservative.

his fenders aren't painted because of the construction... my roommate has these fenders, and they are so thin, I can't imagine paint staying on for very long... with flex and all...
fyi, most of japanese race cars with cf bodies are all painted.

true, and alot of them are covered in vinyl and just look painted... the C-West car imparticular, is unpainted... other fenders may be more reinforced than these, and may take to paint more easily... then again, those companies have the cash to respray the car whenever...

What's function about them if they are never used at the track. I hope J's AP1 will find time to make it out to the track but to many people forget that just because it's "JDM" doesnt' mean it's fashion. If the wheels are used as a function then they are true JDM. If they are merely for show then they are pure fashion.
I bought these wheels due to my daily driving of this car. I bet you 10 to 1 it sees more action than your pretty black car . I have so many imperfections its not even funny because I drive the car how its suppose to be driven, daily and for fun. It doenst need to be tracked just to please some "old men" on this forum. Just because I have entered shows doesnt mean shit. I wanted free cash. Wouldnt any of you? Think before you speak, really.

LEAVE THE FENDERS UNPAINTED!!!!!!!!
Seriously, who the hell is gonna notice if they're C-West when they're painted. It's the conrast that makes them unique between the carbon fiber and Spa paint. Kinda like powdercoating SW-388's yellow.......you just don't do it! No offense to anyone but jeeze........stop hatin'!!!!!

I mean I know Chris may come off a bit brash when he says, "there's this many of this in the country, and so many of these, and I've had these for ten years now before yo mamma even thought about you and ten people have em' already with however many coming into the states (like he's some kind of damn import customs employee )" but you can't disagree with the quality of his sh*t

I second that Amen! I'm sick of people thinking I must justify myself when I buy racing parts and I don't regularly track the car... Funny thing is, I'm pretty sure most of us drive harder than they ever do when they're on the track...
