Take a look at my build up on my cardomain page in my sig. If you have any other questions i'll try and answer them. As for the front fenders you just need to drill out the mounting holes and if you bought the vented front fenders you need to do a little finish work around the vents.

Checked out your car domain page. Great pics. Have you had any cracking issues between the fiberglass and the steel?

None whatsoever, its all about the prep and using the proper materials. The 3m fiberglass to metal bonding agent I used was top notch. Pretty costly but worth it, you have to buy a special applicator gun, I think it cost like $50.00 and then I used 2 full tubes of bonding agent, one per side. My car's body work has been done for like 2 1/2 years now and my car was painted in 2006 and so far I have had zero issues.

If you search Cianci Wide body here I think I have done one or maybe two full write ups on the install of the kit. Let me know if you think of any more questions.

thanks matt, did you relocate the gas door? why do people put it on top? wouldnt it be easier ot have it on the same spot just remove the oem door?

I relocated mine purely for the BLING factor

I like the custom look of it and it fit the vision I have for my car. If your handy with bodywork it would be relatively easy to keep it in the factory spot, you'd just need to cut the fender overlay for the door, extend the gas door "hinge" and to make it look really nice build some sort of lip to fill in the gaps between the rear overlay and the factory quarter panel.
