wide_s13 has done it - I think there are still pictures up somewhere with it.

Bump and grind needed, but it ends up fitting alright.

sides fit straight on however you need to cut and modify so rear doors open. cops don't seem to like them covered for some reason lol

and rear well i removed the flat panel thats bolted to the bits that are bolted to the chassis.
so i only had the to bits stiking out. id advise to make a new piece of flat metal to be bolted back on incase of a hit.
and had to cut corners and side of the rear bar to fit around the factory indent on ae71 rears and down sides to arches.

and id suggest making stronger brackets on bottom of the gaurds as i hit a ditch doing 70kmh and bent the gaurds up and the kit just flexed lol
see the creases
