Someone posted about this part earlier this month. I think it looks great but definitely would like to see it installed on a car. The price is kinda high for it so I'll save it for a later mod since I still have alot of other things I'd like to do first. Do please post pictures of your car when its installed! Are you planning to install it yourself or having a shop do it?

As you said it's not really that wide so their will be no problem with the rear !!

I did purchase for some reasons

- wight reduce
- the vent on the fender looks so good
- I think these two will help me with racing

It's pretty common to only product wide fenders for the front since a lot of RWD cars come with staggered wheels and usually come with more room under the rear fenders compared to the fronts. 10mm is nothing when you consider how large a car is...if the fender were OEM style with no vent, I bet 99% of people wouldn't even notice it's wider.

yep. having fenders that are 1cm wider and then calling it a wide kit is a joke. this kind of fender is mostly to get the styling of the vent, and not so much for the "wideness"

I like subtle changes. Less is more for me.

Can you tell us the weight difference?as much as these parts cost it would be nice if their website provided the amount of weight reduction.
