Vented fenders/Wings - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #78584 15 posts Started by yellowchinaman
We're thinking of making vented fenders.
Already we know there are vented ones similar to this with the 2 extra triangle vents but at the same time we all know they need quite a bit of work to correct them and to make them fit.

I intend to make them with just Z3 vents.
Is there a demand for these?

Estimate price is we where to make them will be around £200 a pair.
those types of fenders dont fit my overall view of my celica design.
but...any chance to make wide front fenders?? around 2in wider than stock?

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island

Yes but then it doesnt go with the shape of the rear if only the front was wide.
if the front was wider, it would actually almost line up with how wide the rear is

Would also like to see more wider fenders. Not trying to come off as picky but maybe something like this?

IDK, maybe it's just me but Z3 fenders are a little outdated, maybe something that is a more recent design might look better?

Or this rendering from a member on here has always looked great, the widened front fender with a subtle vent accents the rest of the car perfectly. Maybe move the one small piece that stabilizes/connects the outer portion slightly upward in the vent so that it's in the middle and symmetrical?



also I freaking love those taillights, if somebody made those and they didn't cost and arm and a leg I'd be the first one in line to buy them lol.
i vote for wide fenders too..biggrin.gif thumbsup.gif
Wide fenders would be a good complement to a GT-4 front.

I've always loved the way that car looks. I would love to own something like it.
how about just wider minus vents. sorry, i am NOT a fan of vents.
