I don't get the rivets. The rear fender on the MZ4 is hung on the frame. Seems half-asses to to rivet a wider fender on when it's just as easy to take off the fender for a proper wide-ass.

I don't doubt that. Still not my cup of tea.
To me, form should ALWAYS follow function. Riveted on fenders, no matter the form, does not follow actual function.

Interesting, there are some angles that look nice and some angles that just look dreadful in my opinion.
My big question is how does he prevent rock chips on those flares? I have to imagine they take a pounding. |

Liberty walk rear flares purchased for my z4mc... Waiting for install in mid-June 2016. Hoping to have it done in time for MPact East.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'll have replacement rear wheels ready by then. I might be the only z4mc in the US with the liberty walk kit? Still trying to find others. I know there's a few roadsters out there. |

I currently have fifteen52 formula classics (2pc forged/welded) they're 18x11 with et15 with 275/40/18 tires.
My fenders are rolled and pulled about a 1/2 inch, but I did have to raise the car about 2 inches in the rear to be able to drive without rubbing. I don't know how much wider the LW will make it, so I guess I'll have to see once I get the car back. Forced induction will all depend on if I get a decent bonus this summer/fall. Probably won't happen until later this year. I'll be in touch with Frank. I thought about the velocity stack kit, but it really doesn't do much other than add some amazing sound. |

Front flares are on and its now matt black.. there are pics if you search for octane service center dubai on FB. Octane SC is a great place, the guy running it is top notch.

I think it looks better with just the rear done, the front flares don't work well imo. Also dislike the matt black look hes gone with.
