It's not my car, I just posted the pictures for a buddy. I don't know if he still has the front.

I would like to see a pic of the entire front cause close up pics like that can be very deceiving and to me doesn't look to be even in the right spot at all. The bottom of this one shows it sticking past the front of the door 4-5" which would make that top gap a lot closer if that is the case.

that fender will never fit right. without heavy modifying. has nothing to do with the way the bottom is sitting. you can just tell that its not gonna work from the pictures!!!

I'm not saying it is right, I'm just saying the picture is very misleading. The front of the fender could be sitting down by the bottom of the headlight for all we know from that picture. That's how it looks to me. Now if the top lines up and is sitting exactly where it is suppose to be then yeah I agree it's fubar.

there is not enough to be taking from that one pic to make a judgement on how well it fits..
We all know there is some amount of work to make any fiberglass piece fit perfect..
I'm sure I can hang a oem panel on the car on enough of a angle and take a pic of 1 corner of it and say it's way off and all would agree..
Not understanding why only the 1 pic.. Bring some more to the table on this and enlighten use on how well these "new" ft ends are fitting

Anyone that does body work for a living could fit that to the post within a half a hour ready for primer.. The other pic he posted shows its not pulled up high enough.. Its not like this frontend is as light as a stock fender... We are looking to pick up 2 or 3 of this frontends for cars here at the shop..I will do a how to install for everyone once we get one here. That way even if it isnt perfect you will know how to install it...

i might know a lil about body work. The body lines on my exospeed front end for my EF took a good half day(4-5) hours to make it look good. Cutting,grinding and shimming to get it just right. Judging by those pics i could only imagine how that thing fits bolted on. Thats not a half hour job. Dont get me wrong the exospeed fit OK out the box but not OEM fit and finish. You can see the fender is not tilted in anyway cause the fender is straight going down the door. Its just out a little which will NEVER affect where the fenders meets the pillar. Look at the gap between fender and door and then look from fender to pillar. You got about a inch from fender to pillar and about 1/2 inch from fender to door. Thats gonna leave u with about 1/2 space from fender to pillar. Then the fender will have to come foward alil so door doesnt touch it. Which will AGAIN open that gap from fender to pillar.Material will be needed to make that line nice and tight. Im sure its the same on both sizes.

I might know a thing or 12 about it too.. Its a fiberglass part made in a mold... Ive never bolted a fiberglass part on a car in 20yrs of doing this that i was 100% happy with just bolting it on.. Plus every car isn't the same. Has this car ever in 20 yrs been in a wreck. Front end tweaked any.. I see what your saying. But i would be more ready to say the front end was the problem if it was bolted on and fit as close as could be. Not just laid on the car..In the end fitting fiberglass parts takes some skill to get it perfect and factory fit requires more than just bolting it on

Funny that people are jumping on the bandwagon and saying how great it is miller bought the molds. Miller still refuses to send a block to my buddy that was paid for 2 years ago almost. He's just as much of a crook to me as wil from Exospeed was. People need to search how many different people miller has **** on and rethink buying from him.

IMO this is probably not the place to advertise other manufacturers.
