Ok, I'm not even sure if this is the right forum, I don't usually post here but no one else has been able to answer my questions.

Does anyone know the difference between the strawberry face s13 to s15 conversion fenders and the Import Fan conversion fenders?

The Import Fan is around 300 I believe and the Strawberry's are around 700. Both are made of fiberglass, so I can't really think of why it would be different.

Has anyone had any experience dealing with any of these? How is the fitment on both? Thanks.

ok heres the deal the import fan ones are made of a nice fiber glass or whatever it is but the fitment sucks. there are almost no bodylines and i can probably modify it to fit another car. i wish i took pictures to show you. i sent them back. buy the strawberry ones or the west yokohama's. they look and fit better.

oh yeah i have a S14 converted to S15 with the VIS sucky fenders

Does VIS make fenders for the s13 conversion? Why do you say they are sucky? Has anyone else had bad experiences with the import fan or gtp fenders?

people say VIS fenders suck becuz....they SUCK! thats all you really need to know, but if you want to know more info. they have bad alignment issures which will cause you to go to a shop and have them fitted for you cuz they suck so badly.

go buy from Chris @ speedalliance.com his fenders are Great!:D

Its just a nickname for the S15 front end conversion fenders.





http://www.speedalliance.com has good fenders.....and I don't think there site is slow. It must have multiple hits at once to slow down the bandwidth.
