Exposed stainless screws, stretched rubberband tires? Eh...

I don't think that 295/30r19 tires on 19 X 11 wheels looks that stretched.

It's nice that aftermarket manufactures are still making stuff for the ISF despite its age. I prefer the AIMGAIN widebody over this kit.

If I can see the top of your wheel bead, that **** is stretched.

I am going to be running a 295 on a 19x11 wheel and its not going to be a stretch. If you look at the tire rack specs the 295 is in the scope of an 11" wide wheel.

I like the exhaust and front lip. Nice touches, but not sure about the rest of the additions...

Saw this earlier and was going to post it.

It's not that I like it or hate it, it's something different which is cool. I'm always for brands that push the boundaries of tuning and modification.

It doesn't mean I'd do the same mods to my car but it's cool to see other doing something that not many people have done.

Thanks for the share!

I want those seats!!! I like the car overall but if I had wide body and air I'd be running a wider setup for sure

The widebody is not my flavor, the wing is odd, and white wheels on a red car doesnt flow. BUT its cool to see an F modded to this level.

Sad to see these cars that are made to look like racecars... but I bet if you actually put this one on the track, it will be rubbish:-)


That said.... if we had another 100hp I could see a purpose to those widebody fenders and wider rubber, so we may do this soon with our F.

I like it, I am not sure it's something I would do to my car but it looks cool.

Your statement leads me to believe you're going to get another 100 Horse, how?

PS: I got the new Separator, thanks a lot.

They are lying about rear tires. I used to have 275/35 on 19x11 wheels, it even does not stretch like that. I am running 295/30 on 11"s now , 295 bridgestone re050a tires is so damn huge.
