You guys aren't giving it a chance. Id like to see it done with some proper wheels and then I'll decide!

I admit it is wild! Can't wait to see it completed!

One thing I see you may have an issues with is fiberglass kit and molded to plastic (abs) bumper. I see your using expoxy, have you thought about adding some sort of line to separate the two? Fiberglass liks to swell and expand over time

^ that looks awful but I don't think these are the same, possibly same company but to me I see more of the "new" Lexus Spindle in the pic I posted and its not as "bulky" in many areas as the other ones you linked.

Not for me but I saw it and shared.
