Rears- ok, had to trim the edges and the gas door required a lot of trimming to be able to open

Fronts- dog shit. so warped and poor fitting. took me forever to get them to line up somewhat decent. surfaces are all wavy too.

I second the pics! I have been tossing around the idea of getting a set of these for my s14. Don't mind doing some fitment tweaks obviously since no aftermarket body pieces really fit "perfect". But after hearing this I might just stick with my D-Max 40mm fronts and Origin Type 1 50mm (i think) rears instead seeing as they didn't require much to get proper fitment.Hmmmmmm decisions lol.

Main reason Im looking to switch it up is because I think the person that sold me the rears, actually sold me 30mm and not 50mm. It seems all the 50mm rears have a much larger lip in the gas door area then mine do. Anyone mind measuring their 50mm fenders in that area and letting me know so I can confirm this on my end?

So, they don't look too bad from the outside. the mounting points and everything u cant see is whats horrible. I ended up just riveting them on along the top edge. you can see a little bit of waves along the top. also the fitment around the corner light is pretty bad.

Don't mind her, check out the fitment around the corner lights. the driver side doesn't curve down like it should to fit the body line. sticks up. These fenders aren't too bad, I guess it just depends on how picky you are.
