Need some exterior advice...Let me hear your input!

[Mo87NA]

What's going on guys? I want to hear your advice.....

I've got a '91 Mk3 supra. I've basically done everything motor wise so it's time to address the body. She's in pretty good shape, but needs paint (Will be done next month). Originally, I had a 3-hole Bomex Lip that I was going to mate with some Bomex Sides and a Kaminari rear. I've since sold the lip and picked up an authentic Do-luck Type 1 front bumper. I made a impulse buy last week and picked up a set of JC Creation Fenders. They're pretty sharp, but I think I'm taking away from the body lines of the car. At this point I would have rather kept her stock, but I got such a good deal on the do-luck, bomex sides, and kaminari rear I couldn't pass it up. Eventually I will revert her back to stock with a lip, but for now why not be a little flashy. :naughty:

My question it, should I keep the fenders, or sell them? I know it's personal preference and ultimately I'm going to make the decision, but I'm interested to read what you guys think. I've attached a couple pics of my car, the fenders, and rest of the kit. Let me know what you think. I appreciate it.

P.S. The burgundy is my NA. The gray one is getting the modifications

Sorry no go on those fenders. but since you already bought the fenders, have both painted and see what you think.

How dose the hood and door lines line up with the JC's??

 

[Mo87NA]

I haven't mounted them yet. They're still in the packaging. I placed them side by side and they look pretty good. I just think it might be overkill, especially now since my taste is changing....

[CTsupra]

Do it.

 

[Wiisass]

Are those fenders any wider than stock? Or do they just have those vents in them?

 

[Mo87NA]

Now that I think about it, they may bit a tad wider than stock....

Can you post pics of your fenders? Not the pic from the ebay ad? I want to see them from a real customer, maybe hold them up next to the car, or mount them :icon_bigg

When you start working those fenders lemme know how good they are made...

Personally I like em, but I'd modify them a bit (no, not saying in what way...)

 

[EdT.Mk3]

I'd rock it.

Then again, I'm planning on putting a Bomex wing on the back of mine for a week to see if it grows on me. :x:

 

[Island_Yota]

Are the fenders lighter? wider? if so shave the vents and run em, the vents look like something a ricer civic would have.. ugly.

I like the stock supra look, lowered a bit, rims.. maybe a fancier spoiler than stock, or in my case (88 N/A) any nice spoiler works to make the rear end a little more fancy looking. Anything that changes the body lines just doesn't look right.

 

[Mo87NA]

My first impression was they seemed pretty well made. I think I may be leaning towards selling 'em. If any of you guys are interested, let me know.

[arizzle]

everyones opinions going to be different, but go what you think! =D,

but i would mount them first to make a decision and post a picture. considering you've got alot of bomex stuff might as well.

 

[Mo87NA]

Thanks for the input guys....Keep it coming...

Mo

 

[Mo87NA]

[Mr.PFloyd]
