Wow I'm suprised on the negative comments for the fender. I always have ppl stare when I'm driving down the freeway or when I'm waiting at the stop light. But the best part is whenever I pull up to fill gas, girls always come up to me and start talking about my car. It's like having a cute puppy you walk in the park for you u know what I mean.

I hate seeing her like this. It's about like visiting my wife in the hospital.

s70simon, I think with coils and new wheels the fender would really pop. Let's all be honest though, his 7 looks better than most of the busted *** ones we're used to seeing.

And I don't mean there's busted 7s in this thread, we all try to make our cars look good, but i'm talking about the busted na fc's that drifters get their hands on or busted ones seen on the streets/backyards/abandoned

No winshield banners are sooo 2003 and the camber is soo 2012! lol 2013 is almost over and it was the year of praising brand new cars that slam/wheels/DONE!

I really have no idea, I'm just messing around.

Well, it's obviously very eye catching. I'm sure I would stare to if I saw it. Doesn't necessarily mean they are looking at it in a positive way. I'm not sure of your age, but I don't think women my age would come up to my car randomly thinking my late 80s/early 90s car had a cute fender and talking to me about it, but then again I live in Miami and all of the women around here are not interested unless it is a Ferrari or Lamborghini lol.

At the end of the day it is just my opinion and I would never tell you to change anything about your car, because it is your car. Please don't take my posts to heart. I agree with Brian and I would actually prefer to have the sticker bombed fender that you have as opposed to the busted passenger fender I have on my project car.

Yea it's actually lowered on tein springs all around. The front worked out nicely, but the rear stayed the same. Want to find coilovers for the rear. Will get gold bbs this summer probably. And it needs a paint job. Right now I'm changing the whole sound system. Putting two 8" jbl subs in the rear with tweeters, midrange speakers powered by Kenwood excelon head unit and amp.

Its off a 3rd gen.
You have to modify it to bolt on then theres a spot that needs to be filled In with aluminum weld.
I have it on my s4 t2 lower intake manifold.

Man, I'm sorry but you need to live in the new member technical section for awhile before asking questions like that.

No, people aren't looking at your fender because it's nice. Yes, you need new rims. Yes, you need coilovers not springs. Also instead of spending money on a sound system, buy some good cleaning products and mimic what 88rota did and with the rest of the money get a proper exhaust setup (used) and you'll be a much happier person.

I'm not trying to be a dick, honestly, I'm just trying to keep you from falling into the shitty-drift FC-holy **** my car is slow-NA trap that most do that ends up in you selling your car for a pittance and you have to live with the fact that you sunk your hard earned money into the poor car with nothing to show for it.

/topic. Sorry again.
