Love your car more every time you post a pic. I vowed to never go widebody again after my turbo vert but I am feeling the itch.

that car makes me miss my black FC..

that is also the best looking second gen i've see with a widebody or kit. it's not too flashy and means business.

thank you for making me get another pair of shorts.

do you have wheel spacers, or are the rims just wider rims? you went with the same set up i was goin to go with with my 87 n/a with the wide body quarters and wide body fenders, one of them is from mariah motorsports. right? i forgot where the others are from. anyways looks great man

I used a spacer in front only because I couldnt get the right offset to clear the suspension and the wheels are 10'' wide all around. Before this setup I had 8''fronts and 9''rears that fit under stock bodywork but I wanted to go with 285's out back for more traction so I went with the widebody setup and its been a great improvement for the car... the 275's up front maintain excellent balance for cornering, its great. The front fenders are tripoint replicas from RaceOnUsa and the rears are Bmagic off ebay from AIT racing maybe? A friend has Mariah fronts that look stock but are an inch wider and allow a 255 up front, theyre nice but the fiberglass was horrible quality, lots of flaking and poor surface strength.

*evil laugh*

Every time I think I've finalized my decision about what 7 to buy, I see something like this that makes me want something different. Damn those fenders look nice.
