had a small problem, it says for bB's to use that plastic coil wrap, but i dont own a bB.... so I figured that since the picture had it, and the plastic stuff was just kinda there, i might as well just try to match the picture...

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e336/Superfa1/tanabes/tanabenf210s008.jpg

Its such a pretty blue

[ROFL Box]

[Big-Kokujin]

NICE!!!

[ZTC]

whats rolling the fenders do?

[Big-Kokujin]

It gives more "clearance" by bending the lip of the fender up and flat up against itself. adding about what 1/2-3/4" of space, to keep from rubbing

[crackinabox]

that looks really good. can't wait to get mine now.

NICE!!!
I second that awesome B its hot as hell.

[_Keith_]

Just to help others that may roll fenders...

Heat gun and get it hot not to hot to peel paint.... it will help against cracking.
