Friday Update!

Little update for you all ;)

 

[Grim_Reaper]

Stopped by the shop as promised and gotta say, things are moving along nicely. They have been really slammed with like 6 cars in the shop but mine is making it's way up the list slowly but surely.

Today they started the fitment testing and said that they are pretty impressed with the quality of the kit. Based off the photos and the front piece mounted very roughly, I think the kit is going to look amazing when finished. I will definitely be needing to run spacers, even with my wide and by normal standards low offset. Rough estimate, it looks like 1in (25mm) spacers up front and 1-1.5in (25mm-38mm) in the rear for flush fitment.

Stay tuned for more. If you have any requests for angles for photos let me know.

That is pretty damn good fitment, they shouldnt have to do much body work at all to mold those in.

It won't be getting molded in, just riveted, but I agree the fitment is pretty great for mass production

Stopped by the shop today to check on the car. Little bit of bad news...a front piece looks to be a little warped or just not correctly formed from the mold/production. Sent an email and FB message to the sales rep at Extreme Dimensions and got a response immediately. Should be able to get things resolved monday.

Now for the good news...left side fits extremely well and they are moving forward while they wait for the one small part.

Pardon the monster truck stance haha. Fully aired up to allow clearance while testing.

No more updates for you guys at this time, still waiting on a replacement part for one of the front fenders. Might stop by the shop tmro though to see if they have started cutting.

 

[Grim_Reaper]

Time for an update!

Things are coming along great! Started the cutting process, even threw on some LB wheels for fitment check haha. Didn't fit at all, way too big. My wheels look so small in comparison to the kit now haha.

Anyone wanna give me a deal on some sweet negative offset wheels for show season?

They still need to grind things nice and smooth and polish it up a bit but this is nearing the final look before the flares get prepped and painted.

Stay tuned for more, and feel free to ask questions.
