Widebody Nissan 350z
           

Now normally we would'nt take on a crash damaged vehicle as a project, As they tend to cause more problems than they're worth !

Especially when our good friend Docwra mentioned his 350 had seen the wrong side of a Sign post, a Ditch, and a Forest, In that order !

But as he had a very aggressive fitment set of wheels to go on it, And the car was currently about 8-10 inches to narrow to house them.....
It would be rude not to !

The plan for this project is to create a one off widebody 350, incorporating the Work Equip wheels (18x10 all round, with an offset of ET -3 Front, and ET -19 Rear) Custom metal arches, and a widenend Chargespeed Kit.

And try and keep a Factory'esque feel to the design !







All the junk panels were removed and binned.
And the front headlight cages were replaced, as they were damaged.












Unfortunately our replacement doors had been in an Inferno ?













We had a nice gift from japan turn up, Courtesy of Chargespeed.







Although their was a little more in the box than we expected.

1x Front bumper, 2x Sideskirts, 1x Rear bumper, 1x Carbon Diffuser.........
And 1x Tropical Spider ?










Next, the fun part, We start mocking up the wheel fitment !
The wheels are spaced for caliper clearance and stance, bringing the offsets closer to -28 and -44 !










Unfortunately, It was necessary to get the quarter panel back into place before we start the arch work.
















We threw a temporary tyre on for mock-up, Although it will be running Potenza's, as they have a nice round tyre profile that suit's the style of the arches.

Then we proceeded to cut up a 350z !
