OP your car is the benchmark...
I just Suntek Carbon XP'ed and got my rear tails smoked red with the reverse cutouts... Have to install my bluebatmobile front foglight tint (FWD)
thinking RJ front, OEM sides REAR, and either M6 gunmetal wheels or TBD. Figuring out a wheel combo that looks best with stock suspension... Lips need to be slammed, so I think anything with a lip is out.. Thinking concave, gunmetal... 20x8.5 or 9, offset 35-40ish.... not sure, prob waiting until next spring for the lipkit/wheels.

For lots of reasons... If they don't roll them well you get wavy awfulness... In 5 years that thin shave will be more likely to rust (and is in a very common rust spot for cars)
Everyone has seen cars that may have been the hotness for a few months, but over time degrades in looks far faster than most... sagging lip kits, rust, etc...etc...
OP has money to burn, but if you are one of those ballers on a budget, having a perspective can save you time and $

Ask Fyah I'm sure he doesn't need to spend money to maintain his fenders nor do you have to be a baller. All those rusty and nicked up fenders you're talking about could also be from people not getting the right offset wheels for their car or they maybe super flush with the wheel and it hit the fender.
You get what you pay for

More so people don't want to pay for the job thats done right. I believe in you get what you pay for. If someones offering to roll all your fenders for $50 chances are you'll get the problems you listed(unless you're friends with the person and he knows how to roll a fender the right way). A fender roll done will not cause you any problems and still looks OEM. I'd say average price for a fender is $40-$50 per fender.

Just saying if it isn't done right there will be problems down the road no matter what you paid.

Picked up the 4G few months ago and really enjoying the ride and its potential to look even better with some simple mods. Normally, I mod my cars pretty fast but the Work Wheels took over 3 months to get custom build and arrive here from Japan.
Have some other mods to get done and finally got the wheels put on and wanted to share some quick pics taken of the progress so far. More pics to come.
Short mod list:
Work VS-XX (burning black finish/polished lips)
20x9 all around A disk front / O disk rear
(et range 37 thru 32) with Toyo T1R 245x35x20
TEIN SS coilover w/EDFC
Full underbody spoiler kit
Dark chrome grill and rear trim
50% tint / red tint tails
Valentine V1 hardwired
Thanks to the following:
Logan - Sales/Tech REP at Work Wheels USA
John Shin Manager at City Tire
Randy and crew at MAX RPM Motorsport in Kitsap County
Service Manager Ron Stephens at Acura of Seattle
