Damn that looks very nice, can't wait to see the finished product. Also how much did you end up paying for the whole kit from Shine Auto?

with shipping and and the body parts was around $1,700 and thats the group buy price, its also made out of a hybrid fiberglass that is very flexible like abs. and if u order the kit from the only other dealer in america which is memoryfablab.com it cost $3,000+ i think that now that the gb is over the kit is slightly more expensive

my FEED II Type R front cost me around 2g's, that sounds like a great deal. those fenders are obnoxiously wide though, you may want to flare out your rears to compensate. looks great, can't wait for the repaint !

thanx, the fenders are 20mm wider than stock and i actualy do have rear fender flares but you have to drill holes in the quarter panels and thent cover the skrews w/ bondo so im gonna wait untill she gets in to the paint shop to put them on.

I hope some wide rims are coming to complement those wide fenders. Otherwise, it'll look incomplete. Hope to see it sometime in person.

No one bought rims as we were unsure of the size of the fender flares. Waiting on someone to post actual size so we can get the correct offsets.

Sounds like you have your stuff together. Good to see someone take their time with something like this. Make sure you get everything right, especially those rear fenders and wheel offsets, those things will make or break the car.

Keep me updated and post some pics when you're finished. I'm very interested to see how this turns out.

ya i know that we are unsure of the offset but i think that a +30 should be good, ill take it to a wheel place and figure it out.

and i do have the full kit just havent put on.

looks good. just a nice set of rims should set it off. i was thinking of the 99 spec front bumper for my car, but the clean lines and simple looks of the burnout kit are throwing another option into the equation. thanks for the write up. continue taking pics for us as it progresses.

it looks like what happens when you fuse a 99 spec front bumper and a mazdaspeed front bumper. not too bad looking all in all. the widened fenders are completely useless without a wide set of rims and tires though. i retract my previous statement, i think im gonna go 99spec w/o liscense plate.
