I am curious on this. Is this an original Saleen bumper that you trimmed the lip off of? How did you get it to fasten up? Drill through the fender and use the backing plate and two bolts?

Looking good. Love the Coyote swap and fender work! Did you swap to the 96+ spindles? That definitely added to my front wheel offsets. This is the first I have seen of these carbon fenders. I am 100% buying those if they are available from @_slib!

Thank you, sir, I love this car and I’m still developing it. Yes sir, I did upgrade to 96-98 spindles

To the best of my knowledge, they’re still available.

Totally missed this post!! That was a reproduction bumper and it bolted in similar fashion as stock.

Fwiw, I would’ve 100% cut up an authentic bumper too. 🥳

Haven’t done much with the car due to working 7 days a week and 10+ hrs a day since the last weekend in May. I have been driving the car to/from work more than anticipated which has been a challenge with no AC and STILL having PS issues. Research led me to surmise that my high pressure line from the pump to the hydroboost is WAY too long, my hard 90° fittings create a restriction and the ID is too small. KRC spec suggests only using Aeroquip AQP high pressure hose as it has a .31 ID whereas my Milspec PTFE line is .29 ID.

Live and learn.

@2dxtrm hooked me up with an Agent 47 shift lever and it looks right at home in my ride!

Do you still have the wide fenders installed?

Not currently. Lost one in an accident and have yet to install the replacement.

The price is the only problem with those fenders. It's costly to replace them.

Shipping alone was $450 for one fender

That's a heck of a lot to spend for a wider tire fitment up front that looks better than fender flares. The front fenders on the SN95 really did need to be just a little bit wider. Even 275's poke out a little too much on the front.

It all depends on the wheel offset and how much camber you’re willing to live with. My 275’s don’t poke!

Look how well they work with 315’s!
