Thinking about going full rocket bunny!

I'm really thinking of going rocket bunny for my 13 frs probably version one. I want to get the front and rear fenders done first but I have some questions like what size rims and tires will I need when the fenders get put on? I currently have enkei kojin 18x9 rims that are flush with my frs right now so It looks pretty good. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1423664405.872976.jpg

I want to go rocket as well, but probably as one of my later projects. I'll be looking at this thread for results as well!

Nice looking car. Such a shame you want to spend so much to fuck it up.

Well when he's after a look to gain acceptance into a certain crowd, what other options is he left with?

Edit: also doubt he's prepared for the final cost of the build. With about 5k into the kit, couple thousand for install, couple thousand for paint and finishing, I'm not sure he's ready for that total.

It's not like these are rare, hand-crafted cars. Who cares what he does to one of the tens of thousands that have been made.

Ya, I used to look at some and think why the hell would they do that!?
Then I thought back to what I did to some cars and realized that even this car is nothing more than an inexpensive coupe no different then the (much older) cars I "modded" back in my younger days.
That does not mean I have relinquished the right to joke about some extreme examples just that I really don't care what anybody does.
Just as long as anybody doing anything does not show up here ask for opinions and then get all bent out of shape when they get them!

Sure if you want to trash prefectly good fenders and decrease the value of your car even faster than it already does. rocket bunny will do both of that that for you.

Definitely not a "Let me get my car and immediately buy a full body kit for it!" decision you want to make.
