Default Anyone add fender flares or body kit to shark? Pics?

I saw an S4 on the highway the other day down in here south of Dallas and it had some kind of body kit on it. I couldn't catch the guy (was in my bimmer for work) so i never got a close look at it but it loooked awesome from the side and behind. Anyone do any exterior mods with fender flares or body kits? Have pics, I'd love to find the kit he used.

1st clue - Custom fender flares in that area.
2nd clue - "I couldn't catch the guy"

Yup, sounds like you saw Sterling

All right Hacker, you need to come over and clean the cherry coke out of my keyboard and off the screen.

I actually forgot about that..... took me a minute to figure out what he was refering to.

Have to admit, it was pretty funny, with all due respect I'm sure.

Sterling, yours is a beauty but the one I saw Friday was black with a spoiler. I was in Mansfield at the time.

Cool, wasn't trying to offend.
Your car turned out better than it started when new, a tragic event with a very happy ending!

Sterling i will say this, you have done an outstanding job on your car.
But the real cool part is that it has been done in such a way as to be subtle, your quality to detail reminds me of Chip Foose, he isnt about Pimpin his ride, but making a design way cool by making subtle changes to the original theme.
I would say that you are on that level of workmanship, Stan

Sterling, BE SURE your car is clean when you get down here to 2nd Sat GTG in a week... I am going to try and schedule a model (or two maybe...at least that way ONE of them MIGHT show up) to take pics with your car for the calendar!

I agree with MrMerlin too... it is like what Foose would do if he were to get hold of a 928! It is done the way Porsche should have done it from the beginning or at least the way it should have been done had it held on for another cycle beyond the GTS! GTS-R or something like that, but 928 SG does have a good ring to it!

That's some high praise right there, but warranted.
