19' or 20' wheels close the gap at loma. You still have to go about 2.5 inches wider per side. So you need suspension work if done correctly.

I'm sure someone with Photoshop skills can overlay a 'standard' lowered ride height GT3 and see if there's more insidious going on than a set of wings and side skirts in this kit.

The giveaway to the photoshop drop is the usual suspect, ADV1. Kind of notorious for doing that sort of thing.

Good to know. Glad I posted this up. Now I understand fully why no one else has this (figured I'd see a turbo car at least, but nothing...)

That's going to need a really good body shop. Stuff like that always looks good in pix and photoshop but figment isn't going to be close to factory

Sharky. KA Motorsport guarantees a factory fit. No bodywork is needed. The kits are made by ZimSpeed in Germany. Most teams in the GT Open, GT Masters, VLN etc are using this.
Most aftermarket kits are not made in an autoclave but instead in vacuum bags. Zimspeed uses a autoclave
