First off no update yet really... I ditched the overfenders I have for the front and rear and have some new ones being made fresh out of mold. Reason for this decision was due to available for replacement parts. Old overs were from NZ and would be hard to get spares so hooked up with a guy in the states.. So should have those soon.

hahaha right going to be snapping some shit...

Anyways reason I went with KSport was due to a partial sponsorship.. But trust me once tested, if they don't get the job done. I will switch them out..

He didn't install rivets. He installed riv-nuts, or nut-serts. Whatever you want to call them. Its so he can bolt and unbolt the over-fenders without drilling out rivets.

Here is a little tease of the fronts... Still have to get a alignment and get my fronts sitting at -4.5 camber.. Then I will add a spacer to finish her off... This just give you a idea.. Current front specs are 18x9.5 -22

agree, i would've not made the fronts so wide.

correct me if I'm wrong but a lot of guys run narrow wheels in front with spacers to get higher steering angle/full lock/wider track.

but yeah id at least go 10.5 with an extreme negative offset rather than put 50mm+ spacer...

big fan of this build tho!

To answer both your questions.. Yes ran 9.5 to get more steering angle.. I plan to run a spacer anyways but not as large as what is needed. Also my camber setting in the front is pretty crazy at the moment so if I bring that in some it would not look so 12" deep.. lol But trust me it will look proper once I am done.. If need be I will re build the fronts to a better suited size. Easy fix..

So did some measuring for my wheels and came to the conclusion that I will run 25mm spacers rear and 38mm Spacers front..

Also going to lower the rear some..





Also got my bolts in that I will be using for the overfenders.. Decided to get some clean burnt titanium ones..

I like the brake line job.

I have a few questions though.

1.What material is the black hard line made out of?
2. Where can I get the black hard line?
3. Are you making a 37 degree single flare and using a tube nut and sleeve to mate it to the AN fittings?
4. What flare tool are you using?

Thank you!
