Default Anyone Running The Nismo Rear Fender Cover?

Was looking at this on the westcovina site and thought about ordering this. Since I have a huge/deep scratch thanks to my nephew and his bicyle, this would perfectly cover everything.

Anyone have these on a stock z? You guys think it'll look funny?

I was thinking of doing the same thing if I got wider wheels, if I decided to go 10.5 in the back w/o wanting to run a lot of camber. It might look good w/o a kit.

What I dont get is, you add 10mm, ok. How about the old fender? Does it have to be cut off? or is it still there? If it is than youre really not makin it wider.

I'm assuming from the pic that it goes on with double sided tape or something

Its goes over the fender, you dont modify the stock one. Im pretty sure there are a few screws that go in so its not just taped on. If you have some wide rears that stick out a bit these things might be good....
