may i add the rims too. those don't really match the car imo, and look very similiar to the ones on the SC430... oh and the brake light integrated onto trunk is a creative idea.
though.

It's well done, but, IMO, ugly. The exhaust pipes border on fart cans, the fender flares ruin the lines of the car as do the rain guards on the windows. All he needs to complete it is a hood scoop.

You sire it 5;gs to do the wide body because fender flares are cheap and putting it i am sure doesnt cost that much. maybe 5 g's is parts and labor for the total of wide body AND the kit iself . since the kit itself will rin you almost 2g's but damn 5g's for wide body, i dont know about that

I do like the Blaze grille, it gives the front a very classy appearance, but I don't like the whole look of the car with all the skirts and whatnot. I do give the creator endless amounts of credit for trying something different, however.

damn thats steep jsut for wide body. The body shop charge him alot for tht then. I think I can get the same $hit done for 1/4 of the price. anyhow. Looks good. I like it EXCEPT the rims.

I am assuming that the fender flares are for aesthetic value and to accomodate wider wheels.
is there a point were wider tires become useless on a fwd? also, from a strictly performance perspective, would it be beneficial to have wider front tires with narrower in the rear(on a fwd)?
btw, theres a few things i dont like about the car, spoiler, visors and rims are questionable, but overall you have to respect the workmanship and i think that the final product looks great overall.

hmm, im not feeling it. it just doesnt look right. maybe with a better kit/wing/rims it would work. props for the uniqueness though. i am trying to do a similar integrated third brake light in the trunk thing.
