Not bad looking but the blinker and any logo's need to go IMO...

I agree with all statements the front of the insert should match the curve of the fender. The top and bottom lines match the body lines. Maybe make them in a hydro dipped carbon fiber finish and delete the badges and turn signal. Although that would make it a $40 plastic insert. That would sell for $159-199? Not the worse thing.

I say introduce the porsche fender bolt on and you have a winner still! I would pay alot more money for that item.

I was waiting on these but this design is a fail... They should have followed the body lines so everything would make sense.

Maybe a bit taller and thinner but that curve should match the wheel well. Deal breaker right there.

I don't HATE the design. I see what they did there...they did try to follow lines, but the lines they are following is the top fender and the concaved portion of the lower fender that extends into the lower doors. Not the fender lines like some are wanting. I'm not sure what the best solution is. I'd have to see several photoshopped designs.

I think it looks OK and even decent in some of the other photos on their website... and the LED is a really nice touch. But not something I'd want at this time.

This exactly! That exact image has come up in these threads multiple times and people always say they will buy them, myself included

Just make it all carbon fiber and maybe include a lightweight fastener option

Maybe just a new fender all together with the vent made in it?

Summit1le1ss · 05-11-2017, 05:44 AM

Not too bad, agreed need to follow lines a bit different.
Any one know what side skirt that is shown on the car on the web site? Look to be ZL1.
