Default Sarona Sarona Sarona

I've been reading about this topic for a few days and it seems like its 50/50 on fitment. Octane Motorsports has some for sale again and this is their description,

Priced per pair, these fenders fit all models of 03-up 350Z. Fenders do not come painted or prepped. Manufactured by Erebuni/Sarona with hand laid fiberglass. These fenders retails for $ 450.00 + shipping. Octane MotorSports is an authorized wholesale distributor of Erebuni/Sarona Aerodynamics.

Mesh grille is included & fitment is excellent. This particular order will be shipping out from the manufacturer's warehouse and are shipped truck freight. Please allow 1-2 weeks for delivery.


Now this says to me that the fitment will be excellent and they are selling the original Erebuni/Sarona fenders. Now my questions is has the fitment gotten better? I want to get them but I want to avoid any costl body kit mistakes? Not to mention they say 2003 - 2004 but 05/06 fit also.

have they change the molding for the fender yet? if not, even with authentic fender, you still need to modify it to fit.

I read all your post about it along with everybody else and it seems as though I should expect to modify no matter who sells those fenders. Only thing is why are they saying perfect fitment? People who bought stuff from them say that they are pretty good, although that has nothing to do with the manufacture. Plus, they say 1-2 weeks because its shipped from the factory and if thats the case then I guess I'll be expecting the same ol $hit.

Okay I asked Octane about the fitment and this is what they said,
Fenders fit good, no complaint from any previous customers.

However I trust what you guys say a little bit more but I am going to order them anyway and hope for the best but I will be ready to work on them when I get them.

Because they want you to buy it.

In my book, when you say PERFECT fitment, that mean you just slap on and no need to modify it.

My thoughts exactly, well I like the fenders and its not like they can't be worked on so here I go. Octane has them a little bit cheaper on ebay. Just found out that there is a local body shop that will work on them but I haven't gotten the cost to do it yet$$$$$$$damn

Not to knock sorona but I actually went to their location on queens blvd in NY & it looked like a mexi-fiberglass sweat shop. I purchased a roof spoiler from them for my G & after a ton of prep work from my body shop it looked great.
