RE Amemiya GT AD Widebody Install
Car has been in the shop a few days and everything is going smoothly. Here are the pictures so far. More should be coming tomorrow. Have to goto the shop to help the cut a custom vent in the fenders for more air flow. Should be interesting.

Oh the price is quite high. I got it from japanparts.com. Shipping alone was over $1200. All together it was around $6000 shipped to my door from japan. You can go on their site and get the price quote for whatever.

Oh and im running RE's original front bumper, before the 99spec lights. With their carbon lip and pro carbon canards. Still need to order a GT style RE wing and a hood, either the RE facer 9 or the an R-magic one.

The front is definitely not going to be anywhere near to using up the additional track width up front (18x10 +50 is a common front fitment for the stock fenders), and the rear is going to extend past the stock fenders almost a full 3 inches. Does the rear RE-A fender extend that much past the stock sheetmetal? I could see the rears if you were going for a drift look (225 width tires stretched over that 12" wheel, head-turned-to-one-side camber), the front specs says otherwise.

According to the people Ive spoken with about wheels for this kit, these should work. We will see tho.
Are you sure about those offsets? While I don't know the exact additional width the RE-A fenders add, I'm pretty sure that it's not too much different than my Burnout fenders (i've got 18x10.5 +43, 285/30 all four corners, and fronts are inset about 10mm off the outer most part of the fender lip).
