Vertex Ridge Widebody is what, 4" wider than factory?...
Your build overall is badass, I hope your rims can handle it...
I think you might need some lip widening like 19"x15"!!!

50mm fender+50mm fender= 100mm fenders. 100/25.4 = 3.94inches roughly.
So 3.94", not 4" -I was wrong. [edit] You'll only need 2" crazy spacers.
Please do think about widening the wheels, it'd look even sweeter than they already do.
Seriously, you have chromed HKS coil/bags, go BIG! lol

why would you add them together? each fender is 50mm wider, not 100mm. 4" wider total, sure, but not per wheel. my offsets are really low, so ill really only need a 15 or 20mm for the front, and maybe a 10 for the back. the front wheel is under the weight of the car and stretches the fender to fit; at ride height it sticks out approx 1.5".

He already pulled the fender an inch previously. Probably only needs an inch spacer if anything since the wheels still poke with the pull.
