    Re: Widebody Shadow

    Looks good! Love the fenders. I've been wanting to stuff some wide rubber under the front of of my P-body but wanted them some what covered. Are you using stock struts or coilovers to fit the 255s? How tall is the tire/wheel combo?

    Subaru coilovers. I'm thinking about repopping some carbon fenders too so I could always make extras to help you out! The combo is 25'' tall

    Please tell more!! If you are talking about fabbing some copies of your wide-body fenders in carbon fiber, let me know I am interested! There would likely be enough interest for a "group buy".

    that would be cool but only one thing, carbon fiber is REALLY expensive. Some of us spend money on our cars but a lot would rather pay fiberglass prices instead of carbon fiber. Just something to keep in mind.

    If he makes the tooling for CF fenders he can pop out FG just as easily, well actually easier depend on the CF method he uses.

    yup, if he makes re-usable molds then it's just a matter of material choice. that would be the best way to do it..
    I would finish paint no matter the material but thats me.. these would be great so my slicks don't stick out of the wheel wells and spray rubber all over the doors and such

    Some blue tape would be cheaper alternative to keeping rubber off your paint lol

    Re: Widebody Shadow

    I could do carbon or glass depending on what would be wanted. Im going to be fabbing the other this weekend and finding another set of fenders to do the second design. I wouldn't mind doing a group buy if theres interest. I'll be making molds of the doors, hood, and hatch soon as well.

    Re: Widebody Shadow

    That would be awesome. I bet you could sell a ton of hatches. Any plans for hoods?

    Re: Widebody Shadow

    My plans for the car are light as possible so I'll have molds of every panel basically. I love the factory hump hood so I'll be repopping that as well. I'll be glad to make more of everything too if you guys would like. I'll be forming lexan windows as well so there's always that option for everyone.

    ^Ive always thought two centered humps would look more uniform, but what do I know, my only current P body has a flat Plymouth hood on it

    Two would actually look pretty good! We will have to figure that one out when the time comes!
