Default Wheel extensions for the Coupe4

The bodies for the Coupe4 were pulled before paint, laser cut around the wheel arches and then the metal extensions robot welded on.
Chances of getting a set, zip IMHO.

The coupe 4 was rare for a reason, it had a lot of shortcomings when compared to the non AWD model.

Still it is quite rare and they seem to hold their value better then the rest of the models.

Where can I get a set of HSV badges? Also a buddy of mine is looking for a set of FPV badges as well, but we can't find them anywhere.

You can get fender extensions but you would have to buy the whole thing because the bumper covers have them molden in. I have seen only two conversions one from England and the other from the Middle East. The look fantastic but would be very expensive to do. The body kit alone is almost 10,000 before paint and body work.
