I thought that the fenders were coming with this mesh already molded to the fender. But to my surprise they weren't

So I just went to Lowes and picked some up (the same as I used on my front bumper) painted, shaped, and installed myself. While the fenders were already on the car so I pat myself on the back for that one

How did you manage that LoL? Fender liners out? I had a hard time with these (by these I mean the ones you have) fenders putting my mesh in with it off of the car!

I just turned my wheels and pulled back the fender liners as far as I could and then just squeezed my arm into the fender I guess. My fingers and wrists are covered in little cuts and scratches because the space was soo small and the mesh soo sharp that it kept getting snagged on wires and other things like my skin

But the out come was pretty successful, especially for the way it was done

Quick update: I know that I am missing a lot of new additions but I just don't have a lot of time to document new things before I throw them on my car. Picked my Z up tonight with new sideskirts

Fantastic!

I'm not usually a big fan of CF but what you have done looks very good. Kudos on putting something like that together - everything looks like it belongs there.

Edit: It wouldn't hurt my feelings if you posted more pics.

Those were place holders, got some functional switches now. One for my gate and one for the garage

I'll try to make some time to take a couple more pics

Ah. I thought the "(placeholder)" bits were where you were going to edit later.

Like the CF wrap stuff were "Placeholders" until I got the real deal. Same with the switches

Thanks, thankfully I'm basically done with CF accents now cause I think that I'm walking a fine line between just enough and too much.
