Who do i approach about purchasing 5 sets to bring to NZ as surly there must be some additional discount on this and well as the savings on freight.

He mentioned to me in passing that he had a couple projects going that he had already started, and it seemed like he was wanting to get those finished before he did these.

Hey guys.

I need a clean FC for test fitting. My bro's car is at the shop getting some **** done and put together so I can't used that car at the moment.

I just need a clean FC , local preferably, to test fit the Fenders with the stock hood and fenders. This will be the best way to see how it lines up. We also have to test fit the Sexy style kit as well. Front bumper, Sides, Rear.

If you're down for this anytime soon, call me at 909 773 0820. This will speed up the process.

Ken

Alright guys. Here's an update. Sorry about the delay, but things are going a bit crazy over here with all the projects.

I finally got my car back 3 weeks ago and did a test fit on the fenders AND the sexy style kit. My car definitely aint the nicest car, but for a test fit it should do

These are the original Foresight fenders. The quality is decent, but it does have some fitment issues that we believe we can resolve. I will mention more about that later. But whatever else fitment you see here is pretty much what you'll get.


The major issue is that the fenders stick out pass the door on BOTH sides.







We believe the problem is due to their laminant being a bit too thick around the tab areas. If we can shorten the tab areas and control the thickness of the laminant around those areas, I believe we can improve on the fitment.




The issues is also causing the fender to move away from the hood




But not too worry guys. This is already old news. We're already 85% into the molds , so they're almost done. I wanted to at least give a fitment update but could not find time. So now that im giving you guys all this information, it's already old news.

Be on the lookout for the first pair of fenders sometime next week.

Ken

I also forgot to mention that all sides skirts will need a bit of modification to fit with these front fenders.
