(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I like the idea of the removable glass flares like Scott's Martini car had. I always thought they looked nice especially on a white car.

I agree. I remember the first time I saw a 914-GT years ago and thought; "that's what a 914 should look like!" and have been stuck on that idea ever since.
If you feel that the one thing missing on your current car is the flares, I say put them on and enjoy it. The only regret you will ever have is not doing it. |

Honey, does this wing make my ass look fat? Group: Members Posts: 1,391 Joined: 22-October 11 From: Newport Beach/Kalefornya/USA Member No.: 13,704 Region Association: Southern California |
QUOTE(Reverend Troublemaker @ Aug 6 2016, 06:55 PM)  Obviously, there are a few options and what you end up choosing will probably be based upon your budget and time frame (and whether you can/want to do the work too). Definitely use your current car...do you have the skills, time and equipment to install flares yourself? I have had both glass (I installed - riveted) and currently have steel - I like both but prefer the steel. The down side is that a full exterior paint is most likely necessary or at least easier when finished. Mo-money, mo time. Glass can be installed and paint matched fairly easily. It took me about 30 hours to hand fit each panel (total time! LOL). The devils in the details to make a glass car look outstanding - fit & finish wise. Best of luck! PS: I do like blue.. Tony STEEL GLASS (Lewis Broyles - Friend who helped quite a bit on this build) WOW..........Tony, love that wing. How can I get one? |
