OP Congrats on the new setup, looking forward to seeing the final results.
Thank you!! And he's referring to the fact that my car was vandalized last year. They stole splitters, and parts off my car including the previous fender flares I had.

Nice job getting back into it. Not a fan of the riveted kits but it's different. Enjoy!

Hard to see but it looks good, have you considered the IS350 BBK because those brakes are horrible.

Default Rocket bunny

I think this kit looks better on a two door car. Looks kinda strange on a four door. The lexus rcf is a better platform For the rocket bunny kit.

I agree that the RC platform looks amazing with this kit and that 2 doors do look better with bolt on wide bodies but then again, not many have tried to do all the work to custom fabricate the fenders for a 4 door car. And if you asked me, I think LTMW did just fine on this m3 wagon..... http://www.bmwblog.com/2014/11/14/ri...-series-wagon/

Thank you! Glad to see the enthusiasm, I'm eager to have it done already lol!

haha no I don't work at a shop, I've just been fortunate over the years to make connections with people who own shops or have connections. The owner of LTMW actually was eager to try this on my car and he is the reason why I decided to pull the trigger

But I wish she posted more of her car, she's so low key about it haha...


Haha, look at that plate. I guess that's another custom plate that I can't have in Texas now.
