Kyoei USA fender mod and VIP experience
I recently switched to Michellin Pilot sport AS plus and have had some minor rubbing in the rear because the tires have a fatter section width . I was referred to Kyoei USA by a member on this forum and made an appointment and went down this afternoon. When I pulled up to the place where the shop was I couldnt see any sign for the shop. I looked left and then I looked right and DAMN !!! I was treated to seeing the baddest 350Z I have ever seen and the baddest 2 GS i have even seen. I have seenvVIP fitment before but not like this. These guys are hardcore to say the least. I was amazed and in awe at how stretched the tires were, how hardcore the cars looked and how low they had them.
The two gentlemen I met there today were Jin and Cesar. I have to say they took great care of me, were very reasonably priced, and I have to say I enjoyed their company and conversation. All in all it was a great experience. Jin got me in right away and did a great job at shaving / trimming the rear part of the rear fender lip. He actually even managed to get the job done and fix an issue I had with the plastic trim piece that I created in over filing the rear fenders with a metal file. If you are looking for a solid shop to do fender mods, want to see some amazing VIP cars and hardcore fitment, or want to order parts for your car I would recommend Kyoei USA in Tempe .

I live in Anthem. I drove 100 miles round trip and it was worth it. If I have any rubbing in the future with the current set up we have I will not hesitate to make the trip again.

I am very happy with the result of the fender trimming. I just wish I bought a couple of VIP magazines from Jin when I was there

Thank you for posting your experience at Kyoei, it means a lot to everyone here at the shop.
I didn't get to meet you but I own the blue 350Z that was out front. Thank you for the kind words regarding my car, appreciate it!
You have a very clean GS as well. I am surrounded by all these Lexus/VIP vehicles and it is tempting me to start a new project in the future....If you would have grabbed some of the VIP Style magazines I guarantee you are going to be itchin to change your set up, lol. It's like a drug...
