Was just looking at GT-Four videos and this guy came up:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wou8KRPGHo&feature=fvw Was wondering if anyone knows what fenders he has on? I don't care for his body kit (Vader it looks like), but the fenders I do like, as I don't like the Z3 Fenders most people here have (Who have done fender swaps, that is). Also, anyone have any idea how he got his gauges so BRIGHT? I would love for mine to be that bright at night! -------------------- |

Its poignant of you to point out all the things you do not like about fiber glass body kits and body parts. The car that you are fascinated with, however, has more carbon fiber than you can poke a stick at. Front bumper is custom made and blended with a lip from a different car. Rear bumper has been complimented with unnecessary 3 non functional exhaust pipes for decorative purposes, of course. Fenders are probably fiber glass too with universal vents probably bought from erebuni or similar vendors and molded into the fender.
Car itself is very nice and very clean. I have seen this guy pop up on our forums a while back but have not seen him since then. -------------------- Captain Pessimist

Sorry if you were referring to something else, or if you were being sarcastic, but I just wanted to point out that it's a full Pakfeifer body kit with the hood and everything. The fenders, I am unsure about their origin. -------------------- |

I have seen this guy pop up on our forums a while back but have not seen him since then. I was trying to avoid people saying "Well if you like that just get an Invader kit and Z3 fenders." I wasn't trying to offend anyone, nor do I have anything against fiberglass, carbon fiber or body kits - I plan on one myself. I don't however, like ricey things. (Many of us here don't.) Thank you for clarification on the bumper, yarik and/or MaskedMan, and also for the speculation on the fenders. @MaskedMan: Yes, the orange car - I didn't see another one...? -------------------- |

Oh I was asking Yarik if the "custom front bumper" he was talking about, was in reference to the Orange car. Because it's not a custom front bumper. -------------------- |
