I don't regret installing these Chargespeed front and rears. The ride height is in its highest position during shifting to a new garage.

I had a vertex ridge kit. Took the fronts and rear and added about 25MM more width on each fender. I think the rears ended up being like 60mm... Cant remember what we measured...

I also molded the rears and never saw a single crack! hahaha

I actually completely removed my rear quarters before I molded my over fenders, only left a 2-3" lip for the new overs to sit on. I also sealed everything up and poured a few pounds of floatation foam for extra support and noise reduction.

So over years. I ended up with Metal up front and FRP in the back. Metals up front handle a beating really well in terms of wheel/tire/fitment abuse(they dont crack)... For the rear, its just too damn expensive to repair metal quarter panels.

In a perfect world, metal all around.

I think it was just a gunmetal grey from some 2003ish Nissan. Let me see if I can find the paint code.

Those rivets look HORRIBLE. I can't get into stock metal front and rear overs. Just seems backwards to me.

Agreed.

The 240sx can not pull off the "hot/rat road" look no matter how hard people try.

Those almost look like quarter-inch bolts.

Yes the rear fenders would flow nice with the stock fronts on that zenki, just get some smaller rivets and paint them to match.

I am going to mold my rear overs. No showing rivits. Nice painted, molded rear overs look oem. People need to start molding the vents shut on the front fenders to look oem. Example:

No one reads, but he has molded shut vents on his front fenders.

I dont know what the "rat rod" look is when it comes to a fucking NISSAN, since nissans could never look like chopped up, old american cars.. they just end up looking like shitty, neglected and modified nissans.

What I can say is, that its unfortunate so many people attempt to look cool doing all this shit but without any tact or taste. Meaning, you dont widen your car only to install shit XXR or Rota wheels with cheap shit tires. You dont modify your car to make it look crazy but with cheap knock-off parts. And you dont leave your fuel door recessed like a fucking douche-bag. I am still surprised that its 2014 and people still dont know about the SILLBEER car and how "a car done right" should look.

The RWB Porsche looks nice because it does not have shitty/knockoff parts on it. The RWB guy spends a lot of time massaging the car to make these parts fit and fit nice. Looking at most of the photos in this thread you just see poorly fitted knockoff kits that were quickly installed on a salvaged or beatup chassis.

So let me get this straight girlfriend...

You come in here bitching up a storm about how everyone else's rides suck while circle jerking your bro's whip...

Which has 4x4 ride hight, the narrow poor fitting wheels you clame to hate, a horrific puddgy looking body kit with garbage fitment and poor paint match...

Then you want me to post my ride cause I speak up? Where the fuck is your gold plated ferrari spec 240sx?

I like the look of pulled stock metal. I don't mind over-fenders, as long as the rivets are small or painted.

Here is my fender pull. Sorry for the 4x4 height, car has been lowered since then....

this happened at a drift event a couple years ago. i was considering getting rear overs and maybe valences to cover it up instead of trying to fix it since pulling it would require a repaint and banging it out is damn near impossible due to the location. car's paint is shit right now so i'd just repaint the car with the overs. thoughts? not too much of a body person
