Pics of My Riso V1 Fenders and smoked Corners
It was a long day, it's not the easiest install in the world, but the look was worth it. The passenger side is a pain I had to modify the bracket supporting the cabin air filter. The old fenders have some brackets that are pop-riveted in place that you have to remove and reinstall on the new fenders. Also I opted to make the mesh in the cut outs match my front so that took a while longer than most installs. Sorry the car is so dirty in these pics, but you get the idea.

I like the fenders but not really sure if I care for the mesh on the sides like that...Looks little
ghetto...The mesh on the front of the car looks good but not sure about the side...Looking overall good though

The fit seemed the same as factory
They lined up well, I personally don't like the factory gap between the fender and the hood back at toward the doors, I always thought it was too big, I'll look at modifiying my hood mounts at some point to reduce the gap in the rear.

I placed the fenders on with the mesh supplied but...
The silver mesh just didn't look right with the different mesh on the front. The black mesh was just too subdued on a black car. In person I think it looks good, it's hard to take in the overall appearance in a pic. I think the recess would look better with a blade look like the abt grille. I'll probably break up the current look with a raised black four rings. Future project.
