I agree. My build is 60 inch outside/outside, with the body 36 inches wide. Therefore, the fenders add 12 inches on each side - obviously NOT worth putting separate fenders on.

At some point, there is a break even point. My guess is the break even point is the distance between the tires and main body.

Your car OBVIOUSLY needs separate fenders.
