I'd guess, when the car is finished.

By the pics I would guess by end of this week or next at the latest. Especially if they want sponsored cars ready by April.

Hmmm this looks tempting. I have 20"-10.5 +15 square setup and a 20mm in rear putting it at 10.5 -5 with good poke front and rear. But would love to take the neg camber out and get some meat on.

I'll text you Naj today. Show season is coming soon.

Now do these fender flairs require to cut the fenders and rear quarter panels? Or do they just screw on?

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.

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.

Ok wheel guys, please PM me or post on my profile what your thoughts are on wheel/size/spec based on the info from CS on this page. That will give a nice flush look maybe small poke, lowered but not slammed (don't want to cut the rear fenders) so a small gap between fender and tire. With coils and as close to normal camber as possible.

Finally we got the approval done by insurance on Wednesday for the door damage, took a lot of time, car getting painted as of now.

One good thing we saw fenders were going on easily on one amuse kit with very little modification mainly pressing, and we currently altering the small fender pieces for Nismo as well

Default Widebody...over fenders...Interest

Glad to hear the Nismo is getting some wide options too!

I have the V2 fenders, would these work without having to cut into the wide portion - mainly where the vents start? I'm hoping the wide portion starts to taper back around that area so that it flows with the V2 fenders.

our demo car has stock fenders on one side and V2 on other side so will work with both slightly different design.

So today Nismo left the shop after kit was finalized for Nismo bumpers and side skirts.

We will be shipping out first Moonbeam for first Nismo to USA next week
