Can you get those fenders & how much?

Also, do you have to get that front bumper also?

Like the front but it has to be fixed to match with the hood better.

I'm not a vendor or a distributor of Tefaria, but you can call them if you like to order them. (Tel:0745-83-2125) I would also suggest you find someone that speaks Japanese, I don't know if they speak English over there. The price for the fenders are 99,750 YEN, which comes to 933.90 USD. They are made out of fiberglass, and personally I don't think it's worth the money either. You don't need to buy their appearance kit, you can use them with the OEM or any aftermarket appearance kit.

Did you Search?
But since i'm being nice because its nearly my b-day here is some info.

About a $1000 for the fenders, made of fiberglass, and have to find a shop to order these from jpn.

I found this but i can't read it.. its in alien language or something

i think im the first to express this oppinion, but i think those fenders look absolutely heinous. i mean, the oem rounded fenders are more of less the most original part of the 8's appearance... and these, these have that flat portion at the top that looks like somekind of dam running board off of a tahoe or something. surely that cant possibly be the best design that a company could come up with for a wide body.. looks like like they just got lazy.

pdxhak, sorry to have missed your comment, but its nice to know i have some allies here.

and yea, i know its not really a wide body, but its just easier to call it that than having to describe the kit any other way, i mean its already in the thread title..

I don't think they worried about how the fenders look too much, but rather worry about the cooling efficiency.

I do not believe that for one second. You do not make that hard edge without thinking it looks good. The could have have blended the lines and achieved the same results.

It is cool if you like it, obviously others do.

Not my taste, I like the OEM fenders and the R Magic wide body kit fenders. Even the Accolade fenders looks funny with the vents on top of the fender.
