i just finished working on my new vader kit and z3 fenders.
the fitment was eeeeh pretty good for the most part. the front had to be MAJORLY sanded down to fit the stupid bump bar. the sideskirts were pretty good minus a tiny sanding in the front to fit around the fender and then a lil sanding down where it met the back of the door cause it would catch on the door when i opened it. the Z3 fenders fit pretty good, theres a sufficient gap between the top of the fender and the top of the door about 1/4" or so but that can be fixed easy. The only thing i have to complain about is that on the fenders where the sidemarkers are, they DIDN'T cut out the hole. there is just a pattern to show you where its supposed to be, so i had to dremel it out (thanks for the dremel use slipgun) but overall i'd say it was pretty good, but as with all kits there is still a lil more work to be done but i'll leave that up to the guy who's painting the kit...but check the pro for pics |
