Liberty Walk Kit?
Please don't bother with the opinions on the looks. It's been going on for years now.
I personally never liked the front flares that Liberty Walk made but I loved the rear. I recently stumbled on this build and the front flares are perfect IMO. Does anyone know where I can get this kit? I was also thinking it might be the actual Liberty Walk Kit with some adjustments made to the front flares.

The rears fit much better. The fronts are far from aligned on either side. I'm not sure if it's because it's a rep kit or if the shape was lost when molding it.

I can agree that the fitment needs work. There's actually a few videos of this car and when it airs out the wheels hit the flares and they flex a bit. As far as the actual mounting position I'm not sure if it's because the shape was altered or if the kit itself just has poor fitment.

I'm not even sure why I keep defending the car and it's not mine lol. But the front flares were altered to get that shape plus with being a replica kit who knows.

I do think pandem makes some nice kits for the e46 and lower but e92 I'm not not a fan.

Come on, 100 hours? Is that really the recommended time to fit this kit? That means assuming a conservative $90 labor hour at a shop you are at $9k not counting the cost of the kit itself?

the kit you see is the ebay kit that claims to be a replica liberty walk. but it is totally different. the guy did modify the front fenders on that kit but you can see many differences in the arches and angles of the kit. the ebay kit up front is much wider than the liberty walk kit, and the rear also has a much more aggressive drop than the LB kit.
here are pics of my car for comparison (real kit) unfortunately even after paying for the authentic, it still doesn't line up 100% but it is far better than the replica ones
