Default Widebody Opinions...

Working on a little 350hp ti and plan to widen it a bit more for my 245/285 setup as well as going lower. Theres a lot more to the story, but here is a small glimpse into the ideas in my head. What do you guys think?

Not the greatest at PS, but you get the idea.

Before


After

Meh... looks ok. It kinda disrupts the asthetics of the body lines. I think if you widened the lower trim along with the other changes, it would tie it all together better...but I imagine that was part of the plan too?

I like idea of widening, especially since your running lsx and your wheel width is demanding more room.

Have you thought of any other ideas/options, or just this one?

Seen those before. Looks nice on a coupe.

You've done a great job thus far on your car, I'm sure you could make it look good.

Should look just fine on the ti, but im also doing a custom hatch, spoiler, roof spoiler, satelite reciever, quad tips, and custom CF diffuser on the mtech. Ill try to make replicas if they all turn out good.

I have this kit for my m3 coupe, I was waiting to find a nice clean roller chassis to install the kit on while i still drove the m3.

Anyways, that plan changed, but i've done some measurements, and sketching, and it is possible to adapt the coupe kit to the ti. The side skirts require no modification, The rear needs an inch and a half cut out of it to fit the rear fender flares. The front needs to have 4-5 inches trimmed out of the kit somewhere to accommodate the shortened fender length over the coupe. Sourcing a sedan kit would be the easiest for the front but it was never made for the sedan body.

I'm looking to go the WB route with my ti as well. We should swap ideas and if you want you can come check out the kit and see if we can work out the best way to mount it.

Sounds good to me, is it a replica kit or is it orginal?
