I need help with body kit/wheels!
Hey guys, right now I have a 94 Civic, but I want to sell it and get a 240 hatch since they're not as common and they're rear wheel drive...
I like the fenders to buldge out and the wheels to be offset and be right out there with the stick-out fenders. However, I have no idea where to start to look for this. I saw a pic on a sig here, the member was Bomex180 I think.... I have the pic below.
First off, where can I get fenders/flares like those? Secondly, how do I get offset wheels to match the width of the body (where can I get offset wheels?) Finally, would I need a wide bumper/sideskirt? Or does any aftermarket bumper match up with the fender flares? Thanks for your help!

whoa dude...seriously. ill be real with you, if you have to ask all of these types of questions, you are NOT ready for any of it, nor is it expensive, you must have deep pockets.
300-400 for flares, 400-500 for body work, 1000 for the kit, and for wheels, sorry konig wont work, you'll have to go with pretty much a high end expensive wheel company to make offsets that low which is another 2000 and along with tires which is another 500, along with paint.
nobody can tell you which offsets to get becuz everybodys fender flares are different, depending on how you put them on, it can vary in mm

There are some wheels out there that will accomodate a few wide body kits, be prepared to pay big bucks since most low offset wheels are special ordered.
You do not need a wide bumper or side skirt. As for my kit, the flares are molded on to the fender and onto the bumpers to have that wide/clean look. Some peeps like it, some dont but I dont care.
If you have anymore question about kits/wheels direct it to azntrd2k@yahoo.com

Hey thanks for your help! Bomex180, when I get my car, I'll send you an email to see about getting some of those! I know that any car looking like that is going to take a lot of work, and I know that everything costs a load of money, but it's just one of those things that I'm going to gather the parts together step by step and once I have all the parts that I want for it, I'll install them. Thanks again!

Any good fiberglass body shop can make them for you any way you want so they will be one off but you will pay money for those.
Just remember that anything you do to a car will probably cost 1 and half to 2 times more then you thought. You will always run into problems
