In such cases how do you bring out the wheels - spacers or axle? Isn't that going to ruin the way the car handles?

Im looking at getting something similar done once mine is lowered really needs widening

where is he hiding them!

It's a brave move but it's got good potential.

And spacers won't harm the ride, might even improve it but if your going to do such work to the body be a shame not to get some dedicated wheels to fill the arches properly.

where is he hiding them!

here in uk ;-)

Lucky bugger he will be selling moulds soon..... well hopefully and the s2000 body would be smiles all round :D

Hmmm a GRP S2000 bonnet could be very popular...

For the body widening you're doing there, surely you'd need some huge spacers to widen the track. Doesn't that increase axle stress if you're going above 25mm?

Looks fantastic though. Can't wait to see how it looks.

I like it, I like it a lot.

Could just get wider wheels?

I'd buy a Mk2 VRS if it looked like that.

the wide wheel arches are allready available to buy for 200€ a piece , but they are sadly made of fibre glass

same with the bonnet for 600€ euro

would be nice to know who made the RS+ concept bonnet. maybe they still got a few on stock

Fabiano do you know what happened to the RS at the top post? Did he finish widdening the front and rear arches? Where can you get the arches you mention?

I've seen resa's final bonnet and bumper. To be honest I don't like the final result. Sadly the bonnet vents are at an angle and not straight as found in the RS+ concept. Hats off to him though, so much work and patience.

Gold wheels on a black car?

What the hell was he thinking of? :)
