well I think either can look good, just like any car can look good if you do it write, depending on your taste. I think Ill end up going with overs just because I love the way the dmax rears look on 14s, and I think with a major rolln pull it makes the little buldge right above the rear wheel look like it does not belong. That is just my opinion, but then again I like stock body 14s a lot, about as much as I like moded body work on 14s. I want to see pics of both rolled and pulled and overs, but the best examples, like the car has to have paint. And I used to hate molded fenders, but I think some of the examples shown here, are growin on me.

kalypso123 · 03-23-2010, 12:34 AM

fuck molding,

I love the look of metal rivets after fresh paint!

raw

Avante · 03-23-2010, 12:42 AM

looks cheap, imo.

spend all that cash on nice wheels, nice paint, all the doo-dads...

and then rivet on over fenders?

...

if you drift your car, cool, i understand. quick fix.

but if you dont...

it just looks like homo.

cars with over fenders look thick and juicy.

especially when the rim still meets the fender.

I'm just waiting for the "team body kits" and "team stock body" pictures and chants...For me, either options can look amazing if the TOTAL package is there...

lflkajfj12123 · 03-23-2010, 11:25 AM

^ its a secret lol

i think rivets look like shit

mold em charlie mercer style

RurouniMidnight · 03-23-2010, 11:36 AM

personally im a fan of stock rolled fenders gives that clean look but still aggressive, but sometimes i think my car looks skinny in some picstures haha, ive been contemplating getting front and rear overs but i think im going to just stay with stock metal cause i don't want to have to deal with front fenders cracking while drifting and having to repair them, also i dont want to cut up my rear quarter panels right now, maybe later down the road i dunno well see.

Those are custom metal fenders fronts as well as rears. Not fiberglass overfenders.

Yes, there's a whole thread that he made over at Nissanroadracing.com.

IMHO, that's ^^ is the only way it should be done.

that picture is from like 06

so is this one

his car is black/dark green with 18x13 18x11 equips and front flares

the rear overs and front flares are molded

Bubbles · 03-23-2010, 03:01 PM

That rear wheel looks awesome.

wh0aitznic0 · 03-23-2010, 03:20 PM

Honestly, do you NEED a 13" wide wheel?

No, but shit looks pretty HOT.

boost · 03-23-2010, 04:38 PM

yeah, because all of our cars should look the same, you guys should really figure out the rules of how a 240 should look. :ghey:

SxMachine · 03-23-2010, 04:49 PM

Sorry but im not sold on the overs. I keep hearing this word "aggressive" thrown around but I dont see it. I see fragile fiberglass parts barely hanging on to frames that every1 and their mom swears by. Not that ALL of em look bad but alot of em look like shit. I'd rather waste money on my performance and spew aggression at the crank. Just my 2 cents

He's right.

All along I've been so sure that I never noticed it.

13 inch chrome equips look like shit compared to stock steelies.

I stopped reading here.

kalypso123 · 03-23-2010, 08:18 PM

sometimes molding looks wavey tho...

thats why i like the rivets to just hang out @_@

95KA-Turbo · 03-23-2010, 09:26 PM

I have a pull for now....but I could go way crazier with my lips and run widebody. I can't make my mind up.

Current pull:

When it was running last:

17X10 +7 and 17X11 +12 if you don't frequent the wheel whore thread.

wh0aitznic0 · 03-23-2010, 09:28 PM

If you wanna go crazier, get 18's in the rear!

95KA-Turbo · 03-23-2010, 09:31 PM

Haha, I want to build a set of 18s....but they're about 4 times what I paid for my 17s at a base price, I don't think anyone makes lips so I'd have to get extra custom ones - since the lips on there are custom already, haha.

no one's car should look like charlie mercer's.

...unless you're into rolling around in a garbage pile.

kalypso123 · 03-23-2010, 11:38 PM

3 things...

- bare rivets ftw. (molding sucks )

- stock metal fronts ftw.

- 30mm > 50mm
