Description

Key Details

The 326POWER Gachabari Medium 2 Front Fender is suitable for S15 Silvia owners who want substantially more front width for aggressive wheel fitment, lower ride heights, stance builds, drift-inspired projects, street cars, or show vehicles. Its approximately 45 mm increase provides considerably more visual presence than the factory front body while matching the width of the Medium 2 rear configuration for a balanced front-to-rear appearance. Final compatibility depends on the vehicle's body condition, bumper and side-step configuration, wheel and tire specification, suspension setup, steering clearance, ride height, and installation method.

326POWER Character

326POWER is closely associated with Japanese stance culture, aggressive wheel fitment, low vehicle setups, and distinctive wide-fender styling. Gachabari Medium 2 takes that character and applies it with more balanced proportions than Medium 1. Instead of using a wider rear than front, Medium 2 uses approximately 45 mm at both ends, which 326POWER describes as creating a more natural finished appearance.

Gachabari Medium 2 S15 Design Notes

The Medium 2 front fender combines substantial additional width with styling that follows the S15's existing press lines. Rather than relying only on width, 326POWER gives the fender a deeply sculpted duct and alters the turn-signal position to strengthen the visual impression of a lower vehicle. The corresponding Medium 2 rear fender is also 45 mm wide, allowing the complete setup to maintain similar nominal width at both ends.

45mm Wide Front Fender Design

The Gachabari Medium 2 Front Fender extends approximately 45 mm farther outward than the factory S15 fender. This provides substantially more space and visual width around the front wheel area. Because the increase is considerable, wheel width, offset, tire dimensions, camber, suspension height, steering angle, and inner clearance should be planned together with the fender installation rather than independently.

Deep Front Fender Duct

One of the defining features of Medium 2 is the depth of the front-fender duct. 326POWER states that the duct is carved as deeply as possible while remaining compatible with the vehicle's press lines. The manufacturer describes this as an unusually deep shape, giving the wider front fender a much more distinctive appearance than a simple widened replacement panel.

Lowered Turn-Signal Position

326POWER also lowers the turn-signal position as part of the Medium 2 front-fender design. According to the manufacturer, this detail is intended to make the vehicle appear visually lower. Because the indicator location differs from the factory arrangement, its positioning and installation should be checked carefully during test fitting.

Factory-Replacement Construction

The Medium 2 front fender is a factory-replacement-type component rather than a cover-style overfender. 326POWER specifically states that it is compatible with the genuine bumper and side step. When a factory-shaped bumper is used, the manufacturer says the bumper and fender are designed to meet correctly, helping the wider front body integrate naturally with the surrounding exterior.

30mm Front Arch Lip Design

The factory S15 front wheel-arch lip is approximately 20 mm, while 326POWER sets the Gachabari Medium 2 front arch area at approximately 30 mm. There is no preset front arch raise, so the extra material allows the installer to raise the wheel opening according to the individual wheel, tire, suspension, and ride-height setup. 326POWER notes that even after removing approximately 10 mm, around 20 mm can remain, roughly matching the factory lip dimension.

Reinforced Arch Area

326POWER states that approximately twice the normal amount of FRP material is used around the wheel-arch area. This additional reinforcement provides more strength and usable material when the arch needs to be cut or raised for an especially low vehicle or aggressive wheel setup.

Factory Bumper and Side Step Compatibility

The Medium 2 Front Fender is designed to work with the genuine S15 bumper and factory side step. This means customers can significantly widen the front body without automatically replacing those surrounding components. Exact bumper-to-fender and side-step alignment should still be checked on the individual vehicle before painting.

Medium 2 vs. Medium 1

Both Medium 1 and Medium 2 use approximately 45 mm of additional front width, but the overall packages differ at the rear. Medium 1 combines a 45 mm front with an approximately 55 mm rear, whereas Medium 2 uses approximately 45 mm at both the front and rear. Medium 2 therefore produces a more even nominal width increase across the vehicle.

Wheel and Suspension Planning

An approximately 45 mm increase in front width can significantly change wheel-to-body fitment. Wheel width, offset, tire size, camber, suspension height, steering angle, suspension travel, and inner clearance should therefore be planned before final bodywork is completed. If the front arch will be raised, the intended arch position should also be determined together with the wheel and suspension setup before painting.

Installation and Fitment Notes

The Gachabari Medium 2 Front Fender must be test fitted to the actual S15 Silvia before painting. Hood gaps, door-side alignment, front bumper transition, side-step relationship, wheel-arch position, turn-signal installation, steering clearance, wheel and tire clearance, and left-to-right symmetry should all be checked before final preparation. 326POWER specifically requires test fitting and vehicle-specific alignment adjustment before painting. If mounting-hole positions are difficult to align, slight adjustment such as elongated-hole processing may be required.

Aero Product Notes

The product is supplied unpainted in a white gel coat finish, and installation and painting are not included. 326POWER confirms that FRP material is used around the wheel-arch area and that approximately twice the normal amount is used there for reinforcement. The fender should be inspected, test fitted, aligned, modified where necessary, and fully prepared before final painting. Any planned arch raising should also be completed before the final exterior finish is applied.

Important Notes

This is an authentic 326POWER Japan Gachabari Medium 2 product developed for the Nissan S15 Silvia. The Front Fender is a factory-replacement-type component that adds approximately 45 mm of width compared with stock and has no preset arch raise. Its defining design features include an exceptionally deep front-fender duct and a lowered turn-signal position intended to make the vehicle appear visually lower. The approximately 30 mm wheel-arch area provides additional material for arch modification, and 326POWER states that approximately twice the normal amount of FRP is used around the arch for reinforcement. The product is compatible with genuine-shaped bumpers and the factory side step and is supplied unpainted in white gel coat finish. Matching rear fenders, wheels, suspension components, aero parts, and other accessories shown in demo images are separate unless specifically stated otherwise. 326POWER states that the product was developed for shows and events and does not guarantee vehicle-inspection compatibility or assume responsibility for damage resulting from public-road use.
