+1. Not a good idea or something I would let the bodyshop do. Great looking car though.

Question: Those wheel spaces you have? How much do they make the wheels stick out more? Do you notice the brembos further away from the wheels at all?

I have an 03 with the 12's and was thinking of getting something like that to make my wheels stick a little further out from the wheel well.

What do you recommend and can you take closer pics of the wheels from alot of angles?

Car looks PERFECT. I wouldn't touch it. 20" wheels I think would make it look overdone. The OEM 19s are the perfect combination of sport and class.

PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT

As I said before they slightly molded the kit to the body. This shop has been doing show cars for over 20 years, they really know what they're doing.

well as I said in the orginal post the front will come out 15mm more, and the rears 20mm more.

I thought the Brembos would look too recessed as well but it didn't change their appearance at all.

I would recommend 15 front and 20 rear any day but no more as that makes your wheel perfectly in line with the fender. Any further out and you will have major issues with stone chips IMO,

I will try and get more pics

So I went back and decided to fully mold both front and rear and flush the sides with the car. Should have done it from the beginning but oh well. Looks 100 times better now and the molding is so flawless it looks OEM.

Looks very agressive in person though.

Here are some additional pics:

They molded the sides to the fender? When you hit something won't it crack? Then you would have to send the whole car to the bodyshop and be w/o a car
