Question Anyone run ams widebody fenders on...

Thinking about going a little flashy on the hill climb build and was wondering if my cwest v1 front bumper would mate up to the AMS Widebody fenders. I know on my old Vertex widebody kit for my S14 the front bumper was the same width as oem. Any info would be greatly appreciated !

The idea is:

AMS fenders,skirts and rear qtrs
TS Diffuser
Cwest bumper shaved middle nostrils

nope.. id think there was a better kit to use.. im planing on using a different front bumper for my VS fenders, but the issue w that kit you want is
a- its VIS and the headlight bucket areas LOVE to come heavily warped. Fit in general is going to be ruff
b- its built to mash up bumper to fender in a totally different area/shape/line than the OEM or most aftermarket.
c- who cares, do it anyways.. its just going to be a sh#t ton of work.. better get Photoshop pic done first.. ive been doing such for my car.. since my fr fenders arent really wide at all, its going to be pretty easy for me.

Default Ehhh

Yeah, this is a hill climb car so inevitably will be hitting something or flipping it...All that work is probably not worth it in the end. The AMS fenders looked like they would be pretty happy with the C west bumper but didn't want to order something useless in the long run.

Thanks for your input though guys !
