I've seen people do it, but it is not really worth it. Check this shop www.genkidoridori.com. He has some bodies that have kits molded into them.

you can pony up some real money and get another FD. OR, you can get a skyline R33 and use its fenders. It just depends on what look you're going for. you might want to check a more drift body orientated forum like GROOVY DRIFT.COM or DRCCENTRAL.COM.

Please don't cannibalize an R33 just for its fenders!
The Tamiya R33 body goes for about $100 on ebay!

He's gonna have to cannablize something either way it goes. IF he's spending 60 bux on a Yok body just to add to it...well, I'D NEVER do it and I'll just leave it at that.

I'm just saying don't cut up a body that's worth $100 just for fenders

i would never do something crazy to a Yok body, its expensive and its already look nice so if i were that guy, i'd just come up with a nice color scheme and leave the body like it is.

Look for an East Coast Bodies Tune RX7 (alot cheaper), also ABC makes some over fender flares...Genki usually has them in stock

Im in the process of chopping 3 Yok bodies, 1 180sx and 2 s-15's. Thank You Yok for finally getting the s13 out!
