Heres a few pics of my car with flares taped on and the wheels sitting where i would like, front it 10mm slip on spacers, rears would have to be about 25mm spaces (yet to be made).

 

What do people think it looks like?

 

I think it looks great personally, but i suppose i'm not 100% convinced. Its either this option (cost of rear spaces), or flare the guards at a cost of $1000 (!) which is a backyard job.

 

 

Keep in mind there are taped on lol, I'm sure it would look nicer them painted and bolted correctly!

I don't want to whinge but it is a bit hard to see from those photos.... can you lighten them up a little in photoshop so we can see the detail etc.

 

I think they will look hot but hard to give an opinion just on those photos.

 

Why ask for everyone's opinion on here anyway, I have already told you your taste for style is awesome :) I think everyone else feels the same :y:

looks much better with flares.

flares staying dark colored?? if so, start cutting!

Agreed I think if the flares are body coloured they will look crap.

 

Either a grey or matt black I think would be best. Gloss black flares look awful imo :y:

Yup the flares will be staying dark coloured, satin black to be exact.

 

Heres some pics in the rain (fun):

 

yep, hot, just do it :)

 

It actually looks like with the flares you 'could' go lower in the rear to bring them closer to the outer edge of the tyre but I seem to recall you saying you had issues even with the current height :y:

Thats basically bump stops :hmm:

bumpstops can be cut haha I'm not usually a fan of flares but these look bloody good especially if they stay black

Looks damn good.

I've had a set of flares sitting in my garage for about 18 months now with the idea of fitting them when I do the rebuild.

My 20 is brittish Racing Green and I had assumed I'd just have to paint them that colour and try to match the paint ( if I don't respray ).

 

matt black might be the way to go for me too. I can see a test fit coming up this weekend :y:

yeah sick :y: i had doubts but it seems to suit, definately black flares.

love your taste

 

such a win shot! car looks tops!

+1 Awesome photo except the tape lol

 

Go for it mate, satin black flares wil look sweet.

 

Lower it a little more all round (cut bumpstops), add whitewalls and you will win

 

Cheers, Ben.

Ok looks like I'M CUTTING THIS BAD BOY UP!

 

Thanks guys overwhelming yes to these flares despite everyone being skeptical initially :y:
