hey guys,

im not big up with bodykits.. i tend to stay away from them actually, but i require big fenders for my r32.. now i can find a few... like dmax and d1.. that come in my required size..

but i want the gap at the back end of them.. and an even gap.. the dmax ones have the gap at the top, but then taper back in to fit at the bottom.

i want it to look like this

i cant find any rear guards that sit like this for the r32.. plenty for the silvias.. i dont like the ones that mould back in to the body.. they look tacky and too round usually.

any help would be much appreciated... i know nothing about bodykits.

cheers

thanks.. they are only +25... i really need +30 at the very least.. +50 would be more ideal..

im undecided on the roof spoiler... they look good on s13s... need to see more on teh r32s i think.. theres a great looking dark blue one doing the rounds on speedhunters etc.. has the 5 spoke blitz wheels.. .looks fantastic.

You tried Rolling / Flaring the guards?

If the wheels are too wide then, I have seen ppl just rivet bolt on guards.

Looks like they went to a wrecker and just sliced the guard / rear panel / flared it out and bolt on.

Looks closely to the rears.

guards are rolled... and they fit sweet with the 17x9.5 +25mm... now i have 17x9.5 -0 and i want wide fenders..

i like the rivet on ones.. no mess, no fuss, just get em on and go.

they need to clear this

yeh it is a bit to cover.. and thats with the stretched 235.. plan is to run grippy 255's all round for circuit. so thats why it will need the +50. fronts are 17x9 +25 which will fit gtr guards but 17x9.5 + 0 at the back will need fenders..

im thinking, and i may need to be shot down here...

but say i get the dmax, +30 rear fenders, and just space them out +20 at the back with 4 pieces of 20x20 aluminum square tube.. mould them in at the front and at the top.. and leave the back open a little bit..

otherwise i might just get some chopped rears, bash them into shape, then make a frp or c/f copy of them and rivet them on.

ohh i dont know.

god damn hippies..

thats true... but ill put the 255s on there tomorrow, remove the suspension and jack it up to where it should sit.. remember that pic is with 235s.. the 255s are a whole different kettle of fish.

farrrrrk that looks phat as albert dude... good job.. the verandah flares look full matsuri spec.. i love it, bet cops or your hands didnt though. viva garage kit seems to fit ok.. compared to others that ive heard of anyway.

after looking closely at the back end of the cusco wrx, i think ill use wide front fenders like dmax and a modified bolt on flare at the back.

its going on a pure track car, so not worried about doing it for police attention etc. just want the extra track and big rubber.

viva stuff is decent, fits up pretty good and is fairly flexible which is a good thing (hard kits break easily with a bit of pressure)

you think yours is gonna be hard to cover up... try 18x12 - 4 :P

those are 50mm bolt on flares on the back. still looking for some full sized bolt on guards for the 33 that actually look good.

    • Followed ☺️ Assuming those are NEO rods, then at least 400kW all day.
    • Lets keep this going , Spotted this very stock V35 in Penrith and also saw a nice R32 FLY past me on Castlereagh rd , sounded really good.
    • Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.
    • I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
    • I much prefer colder weather to hot weather, and especially prefer cold to hot and humid, Goulburn does gets pretty warm in the hotter months, but, I've found the humidity there is not as painful as even Sydney, the humidity up north is to oppressing for this old rooster  In saying this, it does get rather "nippy" in Goulburn for early morning, late in the evening walks, but nothing that a layer or two, some thermal gloves, and a beanie doesn't fix to make it an enjoyable experience, which is much more bearable to me than the oppression of heat and humidity,  especially at night when your trying to sleep If I recall correctly, a "wise man" once said that the "Southern Tablelands" was gods country, and I will not argue that point with him for the fear of a "permaban" LOL In car part related news: My intake is currently in Botany getting processed for the last leg of its shipping journey to my door
