Yes, that's part of it. The other is getting the wheels to poke out past the edge of the fender with the tires "tucked" in the wheel well. This is usually accomplished the same way the old school lowriders used A series tires on 8" rims. Too narrow a tire for the rim according to the manufacturer, but they install with a strap around the tire to force the beads to engage and seal.

There were couple of pieces we didn't use from the Lexon kit, such as the front and rear bumper pieces. The front, because I wanted to keep the carbon fiber vents from the Wald skirt. Can't keep the vents if we used the front bumper pieces. Instead, they added and molded smaller pieces to flow with the new fenders. As for the rear bumper, the body shop was able to heat the stock bumper, and make new brackets to make it flow with the wider fenders.
