Burnout fenders with c-west front, 18X9:+15offset, pics inside

I just started the install of burnout front and rear fenders with new wheels and coilovers, and figured I would post some pics of the progress.

Front: C-west
Sides and Rear: old school RE Amemiya
fenders: Burnout by shine
hood: Knight sports
hatch: carbon fiber

wheels: 18X9 all the way around, +15 offset, no spacers needed
tires: 275/45/18 rear and 255/40/18 front

nothing is bolted down yet, just test fitted, fitment of the fenders is pretty good, better than most of the crap thats out there.

did you roll the rear fender? +15 on a stock rear fender and a 275, i didnt think it would be that flush.

yeah it definatly wouldnt sit flush. I should have mentioned I hadnt test fit the rear at all yet when I took these pics, you can see the rear wheel with the 275 tire in the second pic lying in the grass. I am starting on the rear burnout flares this weekend, I mocked up the rear flares with the 18X9 +15 wheels and it is tucked just slightly, 2-3 MM's. I should have pics after this weekend of the progress in the rear.

why did you delete the pics?

I'd like to have some idea of what my car would look like if I got it painted today.

looks good. Why is there such a big gap between the hood and the front bumper?

The front bumper is just hanging there, not bolted in.

I will have some updated pics this weekend guys.

this is a lot more work than I anticipated. I am spraying the whole car flat black for a few months to make sure nothing cracks, then I'm going to have it sprayed black, thats the only color that I have 100% liked with these fenders.

Thanks for the responses Guys, if anyone has any other dark colors that might be an option, feel free to post. I need options!!

Looking great!!!!

You should go with a black that has a red flake to it, for a nice "DEEEEEEEP blood red" color to it!!!
