The last Charger from fast and furious 9 must be Even more insane ,and i read comments on some blogs about the topic of Last widebody of the movie some people Say is more wide than the last widebody , taller , the wheels on Dodge demon style on 20" , AWD .
Good to see you and frank together again! Yeah I've been following frank closely on this mod because I'm thinking about doing it. I'm still concerned about rubbing with the new wheels though. Whether you push them out with wheel spacers or push them out with a different offset, the tire diameter is still the same, and I think they're going to rub. The only ways to stop the rub would be to raise the car, use a smaller diameter wheels/tire combo, or cutout the fender. And my car is lowered, so at a minimum I'd have to go back to stock ride height unless I wanted to cut out the fender.
Wow man your charger sounds and looks mean, I got also the sto n sho plate holder, here in texaa I got pulled over twice just becauae my plate was too low to the ground they said lol, so I switch to the bumper mount
Widebody looks great. I've wanted one for years now. I saved up and bought what I thought was a kit from chrome and carbon. Not even close to fitting g and no refunds
I’d probably get the full wide body kit from Ikon motor sports but this looks good to. Either one is better than paying 8k additional dollars for wide body scar/hellcat.
Vicrez sells the charger side rocker replicas to complete the look. I have the vicrez kit on my challenger. Cut my car up because I'm on air suspension. Modified my kit to be bolt on, no glue or tape. Videos on my channel
Flares are 🔥🔥🔥🔥, also loving the removable smoked headlight covers, where can i get the headlight cover? I did an online search but wasn't lucky finding something of good quality

" a little wider than stock fender flares aka wide body kit" Looks better than stock but there are some real wide body kits out there for chargers that look pretty sick.
@@RTLife SHIROKAI. If you like the widebody. And I'm 100% it can go on Any trim. Mind you, be prepared for some wheel and possible suspension upgrades. What you posted was definitely more of a go to for affordability. This is the one I've seen the most. side note. Love the channel man. I'm always waiting for your uploads. I hope it's something you can continue to share for the far future.
@@RTLife I was thinking you guys knew of a company or site that sells them. Yea after I got a $4,000 quote from a local dealer for a rear seat and buckles I decided it was the last time I go to the dealer for anything besides oil, filter, and coolant.
@@RTLife yes. About $4k. But I heard they only sell to people who actually have the wide body charger or challenger. You have to give them your VIN number for purchase. At least that's what I heard. Guess they don't want to lose widebody sales when people can just buy the kit from them.
Sorry. It looks like an afterthought. Just looks off. The front & sides don't come close to matching the flares. I don't know. I would never do that to a Hellcat but to each their own.
I love the look of the 11-14 SRT's as well. Pretty much what started getting me into Chargers. But there is something about wanting to have the newest or newer look. Honestly, I'm starting to get that itch for a widebody Charger.
Widebody chargers look so beautiful but i think challengers look a little off. Couldn't do it to mine even tho i thought about it lol Can't lower it the way i would want to and still have 305s i dont think i could
So technically these are fender flares and not widebodys. The wide body cars have the inner structure cut out along the bottom edge to create more room and the fender and quarter panels are also cut with a flange coming off so it is making the flare have a true base to mount to.
he couldve used something called descretion and issue a warning for something so simple the officer probably had a bad day and took out with a ticket to prove a lil point so messed up some are good and reasonable and others are just savage and dont care
I’m wondering if anyone has tried to put the wide body kit on the rear only? Like left the front of the charger a narrow body and the back a wide body?
Personally, I think that the wide body should’ve been standard, both on chargers and challengers. But I might be in the minority. I’m sure that dodge did market research on it.
Same issue with me. I keep flip/flopping if I should head down this road. Means I will likely have to restore my RT to original ride height so new rims will fill out the new wider wheel well.
@@RTLife I’ve lost too much sweat, blood, and tears installing those PITA springs to take them out, but I look forward to seeing what road you go down. I wish I could tell my wife, “it’ll make for great content.”
Looks cool for a non factory widebody! But don’t try it in anything less than a hellcat. People say. Oh it’s so overpriced. It’s a 6000$ option. That’s not just for some body haunches. It’s for the electronic adaptive suspension too. Which makes...quite the difference. Just do your research. I don’t want people messing up their nice rides!
Best bet is to find a shop that can drill them on. But the best way to do it is to just get the OEM kit. Gonna set you back like $4k but it's worth it.
Lol man. I can’t be silent on this one. But been seeing it so much with these cars up there. But if you’re trying to use TAPE or GLUE on your body panels / wings / louvers. You just need to STOP it. Pay a shop and have it done! They need to be installed correctly with rivets / hardware etc.
@@RTLife lol well I get it. I’m a full time TH-cam certified DIY guy also. But from all the years I’ve spent watching big time pros on tv. Yeah I’ve never seen them even think about using 3M tape / double sided tap / glue / etc on any body parts. Especially wide body kits / ground effects kits. Etc etc. that just is silly as it gets. But I also know. Not everyone knows as much as others. And experience and mistakes is the best teacher
If the stock fender is not cut, then any rim designed for the real wide body models will hit the stock narrow fenders. The stock narrow fenders will not allow the wider rims to travel enough when going over larger dips. If you want the wider look, then do it right and modify the stock fenders. Anything short of this is asking for trouble.
I ordered this kit for my 2014 R/T, there is an option to order side skirts that go with it. It works on the 11-14 just needs some slight modifications
@@RTLife For sure, my car is the AWD model and I love big tires, so I run 315 rears and 275 fronts with no problem, just the wheel poke look isn't what I want anymore so Widebody, Copycat Hellcat Bumper and SRT front clip
Wide body this...Wide body that? Makes you wonder why they stopped making Flareside trucks popular. P.S. Chargers are one thing but I squint every time I hear someone call a boat of a challenger a narrow body lmao

It was great Hanging Out Again hopefully this video will help some ppl out with their cars 👊👿
Always fun hanging out with you man. Glad I was able to see the latest set of upgrades! Looks awesome
We’re all getting wide bodies since the pandemic. I know I could lose a few. 😂😂😂
hahahah - 20+lbs on my fatass
Lol that's a good one!✌
@@RTLife 45 +here
Im gonna widebody my v6. Thx for the video.
give it a nicer stance - the price isn't that bad
How did it go
Dope feeling the all black. But definitely tell the difference between that kit and the OEM.
yah the all black is menacing looking. Very cool kit but you're right about it looking different than OEM. I like this though - solid option
Glad to see FP taking time out for you! He sure does make a nice car badass in no time!
he's def a busy guy now a days - was really cool hanging with him for a while. Happy for him with that Hellcat.
I like the standard body Challengers/Chargers, however, I think if you're into the widebody, I think that kit will look fine with the correct wheels.
yah the proper offset will have this looking good.
The correct rims people fail to understand that lol
The last Charger from fast and furious 9 must be Even more insane ,and i read comments on some blogs about the topic of Last widebody of the movie some people Say is more wide than the last widebody , taller , the wheels on Dodge demon style on 20" , AWD .
I didn't end up seeing it - def going to check out that Charger.
Anything and everything that is put out helps someone. Content is always good and helpful the cool thing is it spreads across the other platforms 👍🏽
Agreed. It helps others with their rides. If anything it’s just fun seeing options.

Right there with you. I would end up going back to a stock ride height to make it work. This makes the stock wheel gap look much smaller though.
Frank & I are thinking a Meet early April, let me know how your schedule looks

Thank you, I love that new exhaust setup. yah it's a must have those sto n sho - here in NY they're brutal!
It does look pretty darn mean...he did a good job 👌
Agreed - the stance on this looks great. Def worth the $$$
Soon they won’t be any slim bodies! I’m staying slim 😂
You're on the money with that. 4-5 years every charger will be a widebody.
Same bro

@RTlife brotha you always have the best content keep up the awesome work
Thanks man - def appreciate it
Crazy how I just noticed how sick your hood is 🔥🔥

It looks good. I'm contemplating it. But I had the car wrapped and would need to wrap these as well.
A widebody v6 is serious overkill and extra strain on that engine. Even on the rt engine even tho it has more tq than hp
These are so light. They're ABS plastic - basically 10lbs if that total
@@RTLife tru but drive em down the highway and the extra drag will add on strain
@@blackice7408 Highly doubt that. So you can't carry a passenger because itll strain the baby v6? lol
Those wide body flares though
Car looks great!
Where can you buy the OEM wide body kit for the Challenger? Any links?
I would imagine your local Dodge parts department has it. Problem is, so much $$$

Ikon Motorsports & Vicrez have full hellcat widebody kits for $1500-2000. You have to paint & install them though.
Sorry. It looks like an afterthought. Just looks off. The front & sides don't come close to matching the flares. I don't know. I would never do that to a Hellcat but to each their own.
I hear you. I think once he gets the side skirt addressed, it will be fine.
Vicrez sells a whole kit front bumper, flares, side skirt and rear bumper. Im thinking of doing it in a few years
Looks great super nice car 👍
Agreed - def love the look of the wider stance
if I have a 2014 charger rt will I be able to swap the front bumper cover into the newer style ones.?
I have seen people do it. th-cam.com/video/c9T4Ek3C19o/w-d-xo.html
@@RTLife thanks for the link
Why? 11 to 14 are the best looking.
true I like the 2014 srt8 model a lot but it’s something about the newer style that I like a lot
I love the look of the 11-14 SRT's as well. Pretty much what started getting me into Chargers. But there is something about wanting to have the newest or newer look. Honestly, I'm starting to get that itch for a widebody Charger.
That is cool. Very cool. Do they meke wide body jits for 300C SRT 8?
I will check. A 300 widebody would look amazing
Yea its one on solidwhipz on instagram
Bro where did you get your front license plate holder I love that setup?
it's called Sto N Sho - def a good option if your state requires a front plate
Need this for my Magnum
That would be pretty damn cool
Widebody chargers look so beautiful but i think challengers look a little off. Couldn't do it to mine even tho i thought about it lol Can't lower it the way i would want to and still have 305s i dont think i could
Dang that looks good .
i wish they'd just make the WB for R/Ts. at least make it an option, so you can find em at dealers, or order one like that.

Dodge will soon make widebodies from the factory for all trim levels. Only a matter of time ⏳, gotta beat a new horse dead😉
My prediction is 2-3 years - everything widebody Charger. Than something new will come out
@@RTLife oh how joyous...the model works🤷🏿♂️🤠
The black charger is a bit over accessorized.
300 no plate ticket sucks man
it really sucked paying that.
he couldve used something called descretion and issue a warning for something so simple the officer probably had a bad day and took out with a ticket to prove a lil point so messed up some are good and reasonable and others are just savage and dont care
The vicrez kit + 4 rims and tires would be what around 3k?
Life as thurm just did a widebody conversion. Check out his TH-cam channel
Looks like his is real OEM conversion. I will check out a few of his videos
I’m wondering if anyone has tried to put the wide body kit on the rear only? Like left the front of the charger a narrow body and the back a wide body?

@@RTLife Totally
Personally, I think that the wide body should’ve been standard, both on chargers and challengers. But I might be in the minority. I’m sure that dodge did market research on it.
I think we are 1-2 years away from it being standard
I’m planning on doing that with my RT with some 1 inch spacers but I’m worried because it’s lowered about 2 inches
You won't be able to use spacers on a lowered car - the fenders will rub constantly.
@@CTHellcat that was my concern and I’m not about to cut into the fenders, I just think it might look weird with the normal tire size.
Same issue with me. I keep flip/flopping if I should head down this road. Means I will likely have to restore my RT to original ride height so new rims will fill out the new wider wheel well.

Daaannggg! Did whoever tune your car set the shift points to 7k rpms?
I believe it's second it goes to 6k - other than that it's around 5.5k

Bro is that Oceanside Long Island
Can I install on charger pursuit 5.7
Do 170 and the fenders will fall off 😂😂! I wonder how long that glue will hold up
I would imagine it's a big step up from 3m tape & that usually holds up fine
Best bet is to find a shop that can drill them on. But the best way to do it is to just get the OEM kit. Gonna set you back like $4k but it's worth it.
@@RTLife 😂😁
@@SRT_DRE nah, I can use that $4k to pay this scat off 😂😉. I’m going to put 305s on the back and 275s on the front
Aren't widebody units heavier....aka slower
Not by much. This adds maybe 15 lbs at most. The tradeoff is larger tires that will help grip more
I have a 15 police 5.7 rwd could I be able to do this?
Damn can't even till the difference
yah it looks good right? for the price I don't think it's a bad option at all
@@RTLife yea I can see everybody getting it
do an update when he gets the new rims

yah def not. Once I started modifying this RT (tuning, camming, headers), it became more obvious.
Lol man. I can’t be silent on this one. But been seeing it so much with these cars up there. But if you’re trying to use TAPE or GLUE on your body panels / wings / louvers. You just need to STOP it. Pay a shop and have it done! They need to be installed correctly with rivets / hardware etc.
