Which one is that? I just moved here to SLC so I'm still not up to pace on the events happening around here like I was in Florida. All I know about is the wide open Wednesdays at UMC.

To each his own. I just think it would look much cleaner if it was molded to the existing fenders and painted to match instead of the exposed cf+rivets which seems to be the never ending trend.

It's for this reason I appreciate the time they took with the Zomaya evo so the lines blend and feel natural. This is too forced for my taste but I'm sure you must have nasty grip on the corners with rubber that wide.

Remember, the Zomaya Evo is pretty much a show car. This monster is a track car. No reason to mold all those wide body parts on the car...Waste of money, and time. If he should make contact with another car, or...it is so much easier to just unbolt the crazy-wide fenders and bolt new ones on! No reason to mold them.

agree... to each his own though. Widebody with ridiculous offset beyond what even the aftermarket fenders can cover... and tires still sticking out beyond the fenders. Any rubbing?
