Request:FC Wide fender pics

Just looking around at wide fenders on mostly only seen the one with the "stylish" vent. I can't decide on them so i would like to see how they look on the FC's. Also if there are any other types please post them up.

Thanks
Ben

I really like the ones in the ShineAutoProject GB section. Non vented and still maintains stock lines. So far these are my favorites but it looks like we missed the GB:

Here are what I offer with "stylish" vents though they are designed to be functional.
https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...=480742&page=7

First version is without vents (not available) and is what you see on the first page.
Final version is with vents has pics in the 2nd to last page or so.

JuiceH should be the first to have it installed and painted very soon.

Original version


Crappy cell phone pic of final version

Liked it better without the vents. Why did you change it? and how functional are they?

On any flared fenders, the trailing edge is a massive air-brake and any venting will help alleviate that problem.
They could just as easily be filled in or cut-bend-blended to eliminate them.

Hmmm that makes sense about the rear of the fender causing a drag....almost makes the vents seem "functional" and i like that idea.

I dont feel like i am personally a fan of the RXheaven kit its over blown to me i am the idea guy who likes real subtle changes typically. So its not my taste on my car but i do like it.

I like the green FC it reminds me of justins from DA, and i love the black one with the mariah fenders, however they are a bit pricey at 270 a side atleast for my current budget.

Completely off topic but what is the weight difference between a turbo hood and a carbon fiber hood?
