Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Widebody process

Ok, well i wanted to know if someone could explain to me the process of getting the wide body fenders put on a celica. i wanted to know if they cut part of the fender that is stock and mold it in, what do they do?

reason being, my 18x8 rub when i got in large bumpbs, i can raise my springs but i want a low drop, but i wantted to know if i get widebody will this fix the problem. ..

next summer i may plan to get Full Kam kit with widebody.. ... .

i thinkn SIR Isaac answerd me question b4 but i dont know if he did. also will a body shop cut the inner wheel well for me or .what?!?! i just want the car to be as low as i can get it without rubbing the innner plastic

I believe the widebody kit actually comes with new fenders...not sure. Someone back me up. lol

Depends on what you're talking about. If you are just adding fender flares or something like the APR kit. Either way to install correctly there will be some cutting involved. I'm sure the APR kit has complete fronts but I would think the rears are quarter panels and would require cutting to install.
RAW

No matter what kit you put on, widebody or not...your wheel well plasics wouldn't be moved. Best thing to do is to remove the lining completely. Then you can be SLAMMED

so its "SAFE" for me to do that, i didn't want to cuase the kid at my work said it "protects water from gettin back into my rear bumper and warping it" i said to him "but its plastic or urtherane . .. its not wood ...so ur saying its safe for me to cut them. . . . can i do it myself?

We don't have rear wheel wells on our cars, only that little piece of plastic. How does urethane and plastic warp? It doesn't...The front wheel wells being removed won't hurt a thing, I would suggest painting the inside though, to clean it up. As long as you don't have a CAI you'll be fine. Or as long has you have the watersheild on the CAI you'll be fine

And yeah, you can do it yourself...they are only held on w/ push pins...

its only mr rears that will rub if anything. so this weekend im gonna plan to cut them out and see how it holds up . .. .

o ya, and does anyone know if you can Extened the wires that are in the StreeGlow underbody kit. . mine fit my car perfect but i want to extend them a little in my rear wheel wells. . so i can hang the wire hire up. ..?!!?!? is it a simple spilice or is it a solid wire?!!?

go ahead and extend them... its just spicing in a longer route for the electricity to travel - but should be fine, as long as you are not going a hundred feet or further
