Machine guns for the M156....they are selling the small vents for $200, not sure what the extra power dome with vents (middle machine gun) will cost...it's not a whole hood from what I understand. Front fenders a little odd but workmanship is pretty good. The rears are simple, 8 pcs total and basically shipped to the US for $1600. Think the HMS set is over $2k as part of a group buy....could also opt for the full black series kit from Poland which is $2900 I think but too many gaps. Thinking the rears are excellent.
Those look pretty sweet. They look a tad less aggressive than the HMS fenders but still add a nice amount of umph to the car. Thumbs up from me. What the real cost here is not the cost of the fenders, but rather the cost of the labor to mold and paint all of those panels.
Would be interesting to see if you can find the $1600 link though.
EDIT: Luckily, your in the bay while means Elite Autobody in Sac could do this for you should you desire to go through with this. They just finished up my HMS kit

Yup that's why I like them....basically makes it look standard on the car without that body kit look.

Yes just noticed the pic! Looks real nice! What liner did you use inside? Bs ones?

Thanks. I used a combo of the black series liners and my old liners. Both needed some cutting up and fitting to make work. There are more pics in my journal thread if you'd like to see.
I am thinking about it just don't have the time to have them installed if ever...it was great finding another manufacturer though that has done it so can easily order them in the future.

Totally understand. It took 4 weeks for Elite to do mine. And that was with me rushing them since I needed my car back...
These are "mold to fit" only and the price point makes sense since you have to cut, mold to fit, blend, etc.
The shape is nice and matches the front fender design (I wish it was vent-less). They are definitely smaller and less aggressive than HMS and they had different wheels on this demo car before. I think they we're testing around and found a less aggressive wheel to clear.
The hood addition are a bit weird. You have to cut your factory power domes and 2 rear square cut outs. Affix, mold in and repaint the entire hood.

Thanks for the insight.....yes agreed that they are more subtle...thanks

Woah 4 weeks? My friend told me about elite and said they were real good though. I don't have extra car so will need to be incorporated into total costs. I did get a quote from 515 motoring for a custom flare kit for $3-4K painted and delivered.nrhey would make it of course. Time though was about a month and couldn't leave it that long.
These looks really nice, similar to the hms. Depending how aggressive you want they both look fantastic but subtle.
Personally i prefer these over the hms.
Any idea how much wider compare to stock. And dan these be installed withouht cutting the stock fender if is not lowered?
Wish there were more pics on the web. Very little info in the web.

Sorry no clue how much wider but seems to be a little,less wide than HMS. Thinking we will need to cut fender much like HMS and renntech fenders.
Aside from the flares it self. I wonder how the BS fender liners will work with this kit? Considering the HMS fenders don't always support the BS fender liners. If this kit does, it may be worth it.

Any reputable body shop can mod the fenders/liners to work together....its not a show stopper or a deal breaker
I agree it can be cut to fit (if the BS liners are wider then the flares) However, to get it looking somewhat as clean as stock. That's a whole other story.
