Has anyone seen these flares. I've talked to the owner of this car and they were put on by the PO. They are fiberglass. This is a clean install !!!

What am i missing here, they look just like screwed on fiberglass GT flares to me?
That's nothing new, plenty of cars in the Paddock that have the same setup: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showforum=45 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-12530-1427140952_thumb.jpg) |

Pretty common on track cars where they're "trading paint".

The recess for the screws could be custom too, all you need is to lay some extra material on there. But i agree, they do look nice ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif) |
