Thanks for the complements guys.
When I first saw the kit, it immediately felt right, and it suits my taste.
I always liked the FD3S body. And although I wanted a more aggressive body, I didn't want to deviate too much from it's original clean design. And I did NOT want it look "kitted."
I was fortunate in that the fenders molded in very much to my liking, and I AM definately very picky when it comes to my car. I modified all 8 pieces to get the wheels and tires to fit without scrubbing the fenders and frame under turns and suspension compression. The outer rear wheel well had to be cut and folded to prevent the tires from scrubbing the fender well. The front part of the *non-essential* front frame was sectioned off so that the car could turn lock-to-lock without scrubbing the frame. I then carefully trimmed the front and rear fender lips to 1/8" to allow the wheel and tires to fit. In fact, it took quite a bit of trimming, but I finished all cuts and trims in about an hour using the body shop's air dremel.
Yeah, I wanted to do it MYSELF. This kit was too expensive for someone to mess it up. Blame the trust issues ja ja
The Enkei's and Neovas extend outward 2" front and rear.
The car reminds of a girl with a cute body that once caught my eye, then after the kit, it's like she's grown up with bulging curves and waaay sexier.
goreify,
more pics will follow if I ever get a better camera. My Canon is trippin right now. These are from my 2MP LG nV compressed to 1.3MP to post as attachments on this forum.
dial8,
you knew me back then ?

I wouldn't go that far. I used to work at In-N-Out in Daly city back then(03-05) and I would usually see your car driving around 280 at various times of the day. I got lucky, I was in the right place at the right time, but I had an FC back then so I was probably one of many crazy *** people honking at you and waving...
