I know these flares are not the norm, but I'm kind of digging them. Something a little different. Has anyone ever seen these flares for sale anywhere?

All metal flares are welded on, there are no complete fender stampings. Below are pics of a 914 with VW Rabbit flares welded on: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-2-1143059264.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-21-1134368460.jpg) |

Hand formed out of sheet metal without a doubt. Nice that they were made to fit the GT rockers & bumpers.
