Is this the car that was in the philly area where the guy got side swiped and didn't know if he should keep the car or not? ...guess he didn't. lol.


It needs a quarter. Just put a quarter panel on it. Don't do what you're thinking. It won't go well.

But yeah i bought it off him the car is honestly pretty clean i think saving it would be better/easyer than a swap

How recently & where did you purchase these?
do you have any full side pics and/or pics of where the door & quarter meet? how about without side skirts? does the over go all the way down to the rocker like the extreme dimensions below?
I love the look & fitment, but the other origin horror stories are scaring me...

1. They do not have the body line (the little bead in the middle of the body)
2. The gas filler cap area needs a bit of work, for the cap to fit (not a big issue though)
Overall very pleased with them.

this is just tape holding them on
Has anyone put these on a hatch to know if fitment is as good or better than origin? Like the quote above this?

Anyone have any advice on which way to go between these two for a hatch? We've never done fiberglass overfenders in our school shop before & want to rivet/cover them like jsu1012 did. Not wanting fitment so bad we have to mold them in to not look like garbage.

I bought those for both front and rear. front fit really well. Im satisfied with rear is well, but, the way they were cut is a little jagged and there is are tiny gaps where they wrap around the tail lamps. you would really have to look for them, though

Hopefully I won't get flamed for asking this but has anyone ever tried running over fenders with rocket bunny flares riveted to them? Or anyone have any input as to if it would or why it wouldn't work?

Preferably 18x14s with ridiculous offset in the rear and I'll have to see what I can do in the front. I just want to do something different and absurd which is tough to do with a car as common as a 240 lol

Just checked it out, that's pretty close to what I'm talking about, I want to use 50mm rears and 30mm fronts with V2 RB flares on them to make the car sit as wide as possible

So I know it's generic and the final cost has many factors.....but what do people pay for installing overs and painting to match?

^curious as well....from my understanding its pretty strong. once cured it would be hard to pull on the rear over if applied to that. but I don't know the long term effect it would have being in the elements everyday.



does anyone have recommendations on bolts/ flush securing fasteners for rear overs?

I do not want to have 50 rivets showing on my 30mm rear overs. only other way for me to attach them would be to bondo/blend in the edges. I was looking for a way to secure it in all the corners and maybe have some in between and have the heads of the bolts painted to "blend" in.

DMax hood and 40mm front fenders, Origin 50mm rears molded on, Not crazy about the Origin overs, just didn't fit well and took a ton of work to get them decent, I filled the side vent on the front fenders, didn't like them

I am looking into going with some Origin Type 2 50mm overs for an S14..Stuck on this decision. Is there an issue with Origin quality as people are saying? They will be replacing some current over fenders the PO put on the vehicle. Currently they are applied with standard rivets but I plan to give the panel bond a go with the new set.

Has anyone tried the Fineline Tuning S14 50mm overs (Chargespeed reps) that can comment on fitment? I need a full length/panel over to cover up a shitty repair job that's on the shell I just bought and these and Chargespeed are the only overs I can find that fit the bill. The Fineline overs would end up being about $300 cheaper then Chargespeed after shipping so they have peaked my interest but I am concerned about fitment since I can't find any reviews.

Here is a link to the Fineline overs I'm talking about:

anybody have any knowledge on any s14 over fenders that go into the trunk? Long story short, buddy smashed up his rear and wants a set that goes into the trunk. He is open to cheap options as he plans to re-chassis in the future.

I really want to see more people running custom metal overfenders. I can see that easily costing $1000+

Then again, I don't have the need for anything other than a roll and pull for my 18 x 9 +20.

Then again, why the hell is everyone trusting fiberglass so much? It doesnt seem like it would perform well in extreme heat or cold.
