im just curious because i have been considering doing a clean widebody s14 and the only wide fenders i can find are MSport, my question is about installing them, i was under the impression that they are fender replacements, but i have heard that you mold them into (on top) of the old fenders?

Also, if they are replacment fenders, how would you replace the rear fenders on the s14? the rear fenders look as if they are part of the full body, there is no break in the fender and the roof...

THEyre not replacements, they go on top of your existing fenders.

its unibody, so the rear fenders are part of the body, you can't just replace them like the fronts, if you were to put new ones on that weren't overfenders then you'd have to cut and then weld the new ones on

yeah its hard to do that stuff cuz you need cash. a lot of it. if you wanna do that you might as well get the whole setup bumpers, skirts, fenders f/r. should have money for paint and rims while ur at it too. thats a lot of cash i had hookups for msport a while ago some guy i bought stuff from on ebay was a distributor and was getting started. he was some goofy looking japanese guy that kept trying to sell it to me
