so if anybody else seen my post in the owners lounge you'll notice some ___ hit my fender and took off

so i seen some CF fenders and thought ehhh this might be cool becasue i wouldnt have to paint them

but then im wondering how they would look with just the CF fneders

i want to get a CF hood down the line but not right at this moment


so does anybody have CF fenders and if so can you post up a pic?

what does everybody think about these? Just dont say you hate them, if you do give me a reason why

thanks!

 

That is exactly what I want to do with my fenders. Personally I wouldn't do it to a green colored car such as yours until i've seen how it looks. If my bodyshop allows it I will not hesitate to do so.

 

You can always get them, and if your not happy with the color, paint em.

Do a search for them and I bet you can find some pics...Maybe not in RS3.0 colors but white and whatnot.

I think they look nice depending on the amount of carbon youll be using. Maybe fenders, hood, mirrors and some rear parts and it would look sharp. Maybe darker wheels to have it blend in some with the green.

 

 

hmmm im going to have to stair at this for a while im half and half right now

 

they're cool but i don't
think they'll look right on the RS3.

makes it look...dirty?

 

Makes it look like you wrecked it and bought the parts from the salvage yard and can't afford to have them painted, imo.

 

it might not be so bad if the car had a black design on the side or so

im looking at 445 for the CF fenders or 405 for 1 new painted fender

 

I think this is my only slightly negative post on sl. I am really not a big fan of that. I think if you go with the cf you have to go big or go home. IMO it looks like it is too riced up? sometimes you just have to realize you can't force things into a car. I really wanted a flame job on mine but after many concept drawings and looking at others I found that I just could force them in. It is like you are looking a a great piece of art and come to terms that it would be awesome if they just left that one piece out. if you do end up going the CF route you should look at ground effects, graphics, lowering, and wheels. that is a lot to invest into a "non-show" car.. I guess I also have to say that it is just my opinion and I am more of an old school kustom car fan, and a minimalist.. Good luck!

P.S. I like the layout of your site..

 

I'm not really a big fan of CF Fenders but that's just me. I can't speak for everyone.

 

I dont think alot of CF looks good on the RS3, maybe a hood, but im not feeling the fenders at all... Thats just me opinion though, your car, you do what ya want.

 

hood would be fine... but I agree... not the fenders.

 

The green is to bright I would go with silver carbon then have it shot with candy green clear.


Just me,Scott

 

The CF hood would look fine, even nice, despite it not being my taste. However I do not like the look of the CF Fenders with the hood, because you can't do anything with the bumper, and thats what throws the whole picture off and makes your car look unfinished ..

 

ewwwwwww,

i agree cf hood, no fenders...


i have seen those carbon fiber accents that go above the wheel wells, that might look good...

 

The cf fenders make the bumper look too akward. Like a big green expanse just hanging on the front of the car. I think you could pull it off easier on a black car.

 

It looks like you need something to blend the CF fenders into the Green paint, Custom paint a black graphic that breaks up the strong vertical line the CF fender creates. Also something for the front fender, a stripe or point. I don't have the answer exactly, just need to eliminate the stark contract of the body panels.

 

me being a cf fender owner would have to say it doesent look good w/ the rs3 but i like it with the pw
