Proabably save some weight, but I'd have to see them on a big car pic..not just a close up.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
Do what you want but its not for me.It looks a little "aftermarket importish" to me.Plus,I prefer the stock look of our cars.To me style wise there isnt much to improve on.IMHO big wheels/tires,slammed to the ground cars,big hoods and wings take away from the looks.Not saying a slightly lowered 3rd gen with at most a 2" cowl doesnt appeal to me,a 92 hi rise spoiler but whats the point.Its like lambo doors,why?Its trick,its odd ,its unique which is fine if thats what you want.I just dont get it and dont care for it just my opinion.Then again I have several friends that dont get the whole car hobby thing and I dont listen to them.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
I think these have been discussed before on this forum, the general feeling was that the picture was photoshoped and that you cant be sure of the actual quality

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
don't look that bad but would be nice to see the whole car to get a good idea how it looks.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
yeh the stock fenders on are cars are pretty light if you want something that looks like a rice burner buy one don't ruin a good third gen. just my opinion third gens are awesome looking the way they are.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
If it had just the bottom vent and were a little lower, I would like it... it would be pretty much just like the T/A fender vents only seamless.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
The vents are too big and too close to the fender lip. I dont like them too much.

Re: Duraflex GT Concept Fenders
and! lf you do decide to go with those
go elsewhere to buy them
some sites jack up the price on their fenders/bodykits for no reason
it's duraflex,that stuff is cheap...alot cheaper than that.
I know, l put a bodykit from duraflex on my 91' 240sx.
