Default Front fenders only?

K so I'm probably gonna get flames for this but I was thinking about this do-luck widebody kit. Do you guys think it would look bad if I put everything on except the rear fenders? The reason I'm asking is because the fronts are only 10mm difference and the rears are 30mm difference. I'm not ready to have anything actually molded on yet so will it look right bolting just the front fenders up or should I just wait and do all the fenders at once when I'm ready for the more serious body work (ie sanding and molding)

Be gentle with me haha *flame suit on*

What's to flame, guy? I'm not too familiar with the do luck kit, but unless it has other pieces that mate up with parts of the rear fenders that are not in a stock location, it should be ok. Just take a look at some pics of the kit and you will be able to tell if it will look weird.

No, do it all at once. Taking it in to shop twice will cost you more than doing it all at once.

Be patient.

It's not the money that's an issue I work a second job to support my toy habit I'm just thinking for down the road if I decide to take the rears off for whatever reason since they'll be molded on it'll be that much harder idk if that makes sense LOL I'm pretty hair-brained sometimes :-/

From what I can tell by looking at it it looks like the rears just extend the rear wheel well up and out...

I suppose I could always bolt it up and see what it looks like too...
