I just got a great deal on a new set of Duraflex Z3 fenders, new in the box, I understand all the ins and outs of installing them I'm wondering if anyone else has installed these and how the fit and finish is on these outta box?
Was there alot of prep work before they could be painted? What do you know about these? (Only if you have actually installed them) Thanks guys! |

Well from what I understand duraflex is very flexible so it shouldn't be to bad but I've got some fiberglass fenders from vis I believe and they were a pain all of the holes for the bolts were off so I had to redrill all of the holes and to fit them wasn't to bad thankfully I have a little bit of body skills haha but the fenders are a pain u need remove the outer headlights front bumper an array of skinny extensions and thin sockets goodluck took me 2 hours to apply mine so if yours fit correctly probably about an hour and 20 mins

ive never installed those exact ones but most kits really arent any different. All kits take some "alteration" from moving the screw holes like he said, to hours of fitting. Ive had like 6 different kits now, and its really not hard. The first one will be a bit irritating but if u have any tools, time, and patience its not hard.
And they come gel-coated, so a bodyshop can just spay them quick for like 100$ -------------------- |

also, you can do the install without taking the headlights out completely....just loosen them so they movea little bit. and definitly take the bumper off.

Thanks guys, as far as the holes, there are none! they are dimpled but you have to drill all your own holes..
