Final test fitment of finished product fitment going in for painting.

As a general project update 8 piece fenders are done, products taken out of mould and going for painting. Sides and lip is in work should be done by Saturday. Diffuser is done as well waiting for TIPS (surprise)

Another good news is fenders can be installed without cutting the OEM fenders but if someone is slamming the car then inner side requires cutting else no need.

Very soon, we sent the car to fix a dent on the door so as soon as it comes back, and all items are ready except the rear duckbill spoiler which is in works.

I'll text you Naj today. Show season is coming soon.
Im afraid not aggressive enough at the back

First attempt we are installing these without drilling or cutting the fenders, the inner liner we made matches the stock fender liner so once installed it will look as one piece which is cleaner as well, so this answers that no drilling or cutting is required, though visually there will be screws on the fenders, just keep waiting

Now if someone wants to slam the car and run meaty tires then little cutting is required same as for any fender flares in retro cars. For cutting purpose we want to decrease the bodywork involved thats why whole liner thing will be there.

Screws are difficult to install as inner fender at the back is a close space you can't bolt the screw from back, but it can be riveted easily.

There is no price decided yet only after the official launch in two weeks, but people who are running slightly aggressive setups or planning to get send us some proposals, as we (CS & Ravespec) might be looking for some cars in USA to represent us and there is room for some kind of sponsorship.

Hmmm sponsor.....I have one gripe the transition from the wide part of the fender into the front bumper. It is so sharp can it not be a smooth transition (like no hard line). Also if it is just an over fender having a body kit should be no problem correct?

Went look if the front is just under an inch the rear just over an inch. Worst case I'd have to run small spacers and still be able to run wide-ish tires with minimal neg camber.
