yes, Im post whoring this pic out, but im excited to have these parts on the way.
I may wind up using a different flare for the front than the VS i have.. but for now, this is the direction, courtesy of vex008's photoshop skills.



Guess we shall see.
Lol great. That's exactly the idea I was looking at since before you started all your widebody stuff. I wanted to keep it secret and reveal later. May still go for the amuse front fenders now that you're doing them. I have different rear, won't over lip it, and has vert.

But props that's a great and innovative combo you're going for. Probably going to be the sickest looking z out there IMHO. Hope it turns out the way you want!

Me personally I think it would look better without the canards.

lol.. i got scooped like nine million times already.. kind of a shtty feeling but fk it.. lol.

thanks for the support tho for sure..

As for parts not linig up perfectly etc.. the amuse sprlegra fenders are higher up and have a different overall shape to them, so I know what Muzzy is sayin.. i will just find a way around it is all.. even if that means using a different flare and making it look more like the VS in the rear..

VS front flares are fake widebody anyways.. they dont add any actual width.. id like to add width on this car and bring the wheels out tho..

( will i be the guy to cut out superleggera fenders?! lol)

im going a more rocket bunny/cut your bumper in half and rivet a diffuser to it kind of look, so anything i have to mold, ill just shave in half and route a big @ss canard under it lol..

Y u no bodywork?
Because areos /easier lol

I thought you needed to purchase the whole superlegga kit? Were you able to get the fenders individually?

You are correct that it is ONLY available as a full kit, both as authentic Amuse or replica VIS .

I have made a special case w my sponsor VIS in this build based on my existing relationship w them......and under the agreement I repeat myself frequently online that they WILL NOT sell a split up kit Lol..

(Thanks again to Joe n Fred Lol)

Not a fan of this kit either. It seems like the same kit made to fit on different cars...

Not sure if this was rocketbunnys earlier interpretation but this was going around from the Japan auto show. I thought it was ugly/ricey/tacky looking. Lines are all off. There's another pic straight on, I thought it looked even worse.

MAN its gna be a bear to match these fenders to a stock front bumper.. totally different fender shapes by the headlights.
Cut out for tire clearance, wide fender flare area marked out for fit.. SOON.

Follow my other thread tho, wont post too much up in this one on it.

I don't understand why someone would run a great wing as a spoiler instead if a wing.
