Actually washed it for the 3rd time since I've owned it today (about 3 years now... 4 in Nov)... I'll get day pics sometime soon... still need to fix the paint some more where it cracked on the RR passenger fender... looks a lot better than it did though...Front fenders are rolled ~3/4... fronts won't really very well.. you should watch a front fender being rolled... jello comes to mind. I'm second guessing not getting "wide body" front fenders for the silvia conv now...

Yeah, you really need to take the front fenders off to roll them correctly. They flex too much to roll when they are on the car.I removed mine, layered a bunch of towels behind them, and worked the inner fender lip with a hammer untill it was perfectly flat. Worked perfect and did not wrinkle the fender or mess up the paint at all. 
My front is 17x9+20 with 235s and -2 degrees camber.

Thanks for the tip! Honest... I might use that when I get my Silvia fenders, but these fenders were in poor shape when I got them so I'm not so worried about how perfect they are as long as they clear the tires. A side note... I really happy about the Kei Office XT's since the ride quality hasn't changed substantially with the shorter sidewalls... I'd highly recommend them to anyone interested in a quality coilover!

wheels and brakes look awesome props to you. but that fender rolling is horrible. looks like you fendered the whole back part all around. looks funny to me.
If it aint dumped, it aint ****.

Seems like it would have been wiser to get the correct offset and not wreck the fenders.Cast or forged?

sub 15 lb wheel in 17x9. I don't even want to know how much those cost. They look good though.  and I want to hump your brake's (If only you replaced the word AXXIS with Carbotech).

Thanks!Ha... funny you say that... I drove Carbotech's enduro Z31 last year and definitely plan on getting a set after driving on them when I'm done with the Axxis pads...
