Voltex Rear over fender pic request.

Looking for pictures of Voltex rear over fenders with an otherwise stock exterior. I have a set of 18x9 Advan RG II's, thought about running spacers on the rear rims and keeping everything else rather stock. Any help would be appreciated. Thank in advance.

This is exactly why I saved this pic. It's not the best angle, but you can kind of get an idea of what it would look like based on this photo, for at least how they match up to the stock sideskirts frm the side. Sorry it's the best I have at the moment.

If you hit up speed element I bet they have better pics from other angles. If you, please share.

Appreciate the help guys, I was looking for a pic with stock front fenders but I guess these will have to do. I'll contact speed element.

ahhh i see. i imagine it would look okay, maybe just a little more like a RWD car. as you know, looking at our cars from either end, the flares are pretty prominent. i think it would look just fine, and more importantly, you could fit as aggressive rear wheels and tires as easily as front. i'd just go fo it if you're thinking about it. you could always add the fronts later if you don't like the looks.

I think the fronts are wider as well. But you are thinking exactly like I am. I'm just wondering if I will like the look in a few years when I'm "older"? You have to cut a lot of crap out of the rear OEM fenders to get them to work. So basically you pass the point of no return!

Yes, I will deff sleep on it for a few more days. How badly does the rear quarters get hacked up? I know the lip on the quarter needs to be cut, aside from that, what else needs to be cut or hacked? Thank you!!

if you do it you should mold all the voltex stuff to the quarters and rear bumper, makes it look way clean IMO.

that's true, but if you use the car for anything besides show only, it's a lot harder to repair if something happens and the fiberglass overfender breaks. Other mounting methods you can take it off and repair it or just buy a new overfender.
