thanks for the advice. did you try these fenders?

 

[Cellerator]

no offense or anything but besides looks, what does it do?

 

[Mr. Win]

no its just common knowledge amoung the industry that vis does not build quality. I can almost promise it wont fit right.

i guess saves weight, aren't they made from fiberglass?

I think there suppose to be like vents for hot air that the tires make. or something like that.

 

[ENTENSE]

Yes, I bought them. they fit great. Just took them off to get them painted, they came a couple of scratches in them that need att. The pait shop I go to is going to charge me around 300 to paint them, mind you they have to fix the scratches in them too. But they look bad ass, there is also different fenders for our car too on e-bay.

well its mostly rice IMO, as to anyone else they might give you a hard time bc most ppl dont like it. i've seen it work on certain cars but mostly with custom body kits and just different lines. if you want to get it go for it, i dont see it much but hey make sure the paint matches up. post some pictures if you decide to go for it. personally i'd say no. but its your car not ours

if you have stock wheels, etc, dont buy them...IF youre going to buy them, at least do some other stuff to your car first so it doesnt look so random.

VIS Doesn't suck totally. I have a vis cf and it holding up pretty good.

 

[Matthew]

you know, i broached this subject at the suby forums if you remember my thread about it, and most of the suby guys rate VIS top notch. maybe their protege molds are just garbage?

I have a ViS Carbon fiber hood as well. Fits great! Although, I don't like the style of the fenders. And I have altezzas (upyours) lol. But it all just goes on what kind of style you like. I my self, I go for the style I like because it's my car. I could care less of what everyone else thinks. So if your thing is z3, then find a decent fitting pair and run with it, bud. Good luck!

that would now work...


ViS stuff never really holds after a while, most all Vis hoods ive seen fad or bubble and is just an overlay.

 

[QuickShift]

Really? Supposedly its supposed to be like 5 layer carbon fiber blah blah, lol.
