[dav85]

just wondering anyone has some helpful information i may need to know before cutting theold fenders. im gonna line up my wheels and then go from there.. if anyone has some helpful tips or install pics it would be very helpful thanks

one suggestion is test fit it frist before you put it on. use rivits to hold the over fenders up. there is some pics on Zilva but you'll have to search by hand the search buton isnt working well so look for it.

i did wide fenders on my s13, ill get some pictures up, we had to trim up the old rear fenders so wider wheels would fit with spacers, we rivited them on the used filler to mold them on, looked badass when done but took a shit load of time to make them look right,

Place the over fender on your car. Take a level and make sure it's straight.

Hold the overfender on with tape and mark the places you need to drill/rivet.

Then mark the fenders that are going to be cut.

Once you cut the fender, weld the two pieces together. And make sure to shoot the fresh metal with primer.

After that, place the overfender back on. Rivet that shit.

Paint.


Done.

This thread sucks.


Cut the fuck out of your stock fenders so you can get full travel, you'll need to cut it above the body crease. weld, bolt or glue the inner and outter skins back together.

put wheels on in the fitment/camber/height you want.

Stack about 5mm of news paper on top/outter side of the wheel/tire

Press over fender on to the newspaper.

center the overfender on the existing fenders

start screwing/riveting if your lazy, or tape it up and make everything nice if you aren't.


Bam, I'll be doing it that way this weekend.
