Cutting fenders... Illegal? cert-able?

Recommended Posts

What's the go with this? I wanna put some flares on my coupe. Have seen some people over in the states cutting into the guards and stuff. Is this illegal here or can it be certd/wofd?

Anyone done this before?

Can't seem to find anything on google

Only thing I can see according to lvvta is not requiring cert:

Fitting of or modification to: LVV Certification is not required provided that: (refer to LVV Certifier if beyond threshold below)

Cosmetic body kits and components [including utility canopies and plastic bumper skins]

 The fitting system does not weaken the vehicle structure, and

 no frontal impact components have been removed where the vehicle is required to comply with a frontal impact occupant protection standard (see note on page 1), and

 the kit or components do not present any forward-facing external projections, and

 the performance of any lamp is not affected as a result of the kit or components.

Another post to a question on the lvta site:

Are carbon fibre panels allowed for exterior panels including - bonnet, boot, fenders, doors, grille and bumpers?

Yes this is allowed so long as they are fitted and secured properly, there are no external projection issues and the vehicle structure has not been affected.

Seems the only problem that you might get is the fact they protrude more than the oem part so may need cert.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
