Anyone has these??? I'm just wondering about the 'mesh' that goes in the slits... I"m thinken of painting it a flat black.... but my friend says it would look better with NO mesh at all.. just vents...
Originally posted by TheBigB I have them in black, take a look at my last post, i show pics. I painted the mesh black too. I really like it that way, it looks stealth.
nice....
looks good and clean.... my bodyshop used I think a different kind of mesh.. I think it's the kind that is used for bumper grilles... with bigger holes... and they lined them up f***ed up .... for example... one slit the pattern is vertical.. .and the slit beside it.. the pattern is horizontal... I am hoping that after painting them black ... you won't be able to notice.
also... how long have you had these in for?? any problems with rust?

sweet a$$ lookin car TheBigB
played out??? maybe where you are... but here in Toronto.... haven't seen even ONE lude with Z3 fenders (I'm sure there is a few... but still very rare... have yet to personally see one)....
you wanna do something else to your fenders to make 'em look sweet??
throw on a sidemarker.. lol j/k
I've seen a lude on hondaprelude.com with Z3 fenders backwards... I dunno if he did that on purpose or what .. still looks ok though....
the only other thing i could think of would be WIDE body kit... flare those babies out.
peace

Eh, they are ok... if u get the full fiberglass ones from Aerogear, they are kinda of a ***** to fit... other than that, its ok I guess... I got a good deal on my whole kit, so only reason i have the fenders is cuz the guy just threw em in.

wacha mean "full fiberglass ones" .... ???
as in the whole fender is fiberglass?? or just the insert?
I got the fiberglass (knockoff) inserts.... for $60 CDN... pretty good deal I think.... shop had no problem installing them.... I'm just trippen bout that mesh...
and how long u had yours for..?? any problems... rust??
yea, i have the full fender in fiberglass from aerogear. They came with the mesh already in them. They were hard to fit. I had a friend help install them and in some spots the bolts were a half a inch off. We had to bend them a lot to get them on. But around here i have yet to see another car with them so there still unique.
They're so played out that they look dumb on BMW Z3's! Seriously, it's like putting a BMW emblem in place of your Honda emblem.. Heh.. But I guess; To each, his own.
wat i mean by played out if that i see civic and integ and everything in between wif them on. like euro light they look great b4 every1 jump in, but i saw a civic on the street wif them i wanted to burf.... eeww that was one nasty civic so i gave up on them and goin to look 4 a new thing

I totally see your point and completely agree.... that would probably kill it for me too.... luckily, I haven't personally seen even one car around here with 'em on.... plus... even if I do pull up to a civic with Z3 fenders.... I'd laugh at him anyway cuz it looks ridiculous.... whereas on the lude ... I think it compliments very nicely, suits the car.
Say you have a Porsche... and then you see a civic with a Porsche emblem on it.. haha ( you never know) ... does that mean your car is played out??? I think not... I think just means that CIVICs themselves are played out and running out of options.
Anyways... what's done is done... hehe... I'll post pics up next week.
yea i think the 4th gen would look ok wif teh z3 cause it nice and curvie up front like a z3, and not so boxie like some civic and the 5th gen lude... but i so want to do this, but i live in san diego where i see a few once a week, some are very weak while some just look totally sweet. But i can't follow the trend in san diego where everything is so rice out. u have not seen rice till u live around teh san diego, OC and LA area
