Dads Performance will be offering the HMS-Tuning Rear Fender Package
Many of you have been folllowing a separate thread where I have been working with HMS on their rear fender flare kit. I did purchase the set and should have them within two weeks. I will do a complete write up with pictures etc.... on the install. I will then determine what wheel width will work and fit correctly. All the information will be in this thread and I'll be as thorough as I can. Please let me know if you have any questions.
HMS does not want to offer any pricing until we get them on the car and make sure the quality, fit, and finish is acceptable. If it is and there is interest they will put a group buy together and I'll have that information as soon as everything is worked out so please be patient. We've been waiting on this mod for years so a couple more weeks will be easy.
Like I said I'll give you as much information as I can as we move forward.
Between the C/F hood, C/F trunk, and fender kit we'll be building our own little "Dads performance Black Series".
Thanks again,
Keith

Awesome, many have wanted this since the Silver Dragon's epic widebody.
But FML, I'd have to re-vinyl the sideskirts, rear doors, rear quarters and the rear bumper...

Besides, I'm pretty happy with my STEEL widebody. One of two.
But this does seem like a really nice option if you're willing to cut the body and properly mold it in. Looks more like the CLK black than mine does. Props.

PS - regarding wheels and fitment, if this is as wide as it looks you should be able to fit a 12" rim with 335s in the back with around a 25mm offset. I've got 11s & 315s on a 27 offset (with plenty of room on the inside), and I still have traction issues, so bigger would still be better.

This isn't the first aftermarket widebody kit, you know that, right? Expressions anyone? Wald? RennTech? There are plenty of options. Keith is just bringing in the only one that isn't completely horrible looking. (By the way, it does look dope, mostly)

Yea your car looks awesome man but when I got quoted from Evosport about it they said it would be like $7k and can only be done at Evosport in Cali.
I think this looks pretty similar and price seems pretty fair as well. Seems like it is a pretty good option for all us guys not in Cali.
If was in Cali I would seriously consider just getting it done at Evosport!

wow...cant wait for the finish/installed product and find out how much are we gonna spend on this project (product, paint, labor, wheels, tires etc etc). I guess have to start saving and no more mixed drinks from Starbucks.

I'm super pumped about this...I'm guessing this is going to be at least a $4-5K job for the fenders, bodywork and paint...and of course the requisite wide-body custom rear wheels will probably double that!
