Does anyone have GT flares on their car with their orginal non-flared bumpers and rocker covers?

Can you post a photo, trying to get a mental picture of how the 9 Magazine car will look.

flared VALENCES (under the bumpers) and flared side rockers....

see many cars without a flared rear valence (Because only one source makes them IIRC)

Flared Valence (no "S"). The GT does not use a rear valence

LOL

Kind of hard to see but this car has a stock front and rear valance, the rockers are for a flared car.

Brian... I think what your looking for is what I have.... ie.. they dont line up. Looks okay from a distance, but it still bugs me.

szuccaro,

Yes that is what I wanted to see! Looks like am going to have to get the flared rockers too!

Anyone have a source for them?

I have tried different makers, but as far as I am concerned these are the ones to use. Rennspeed http://www.rennspd.com/Index.asp
And the price is right.

Without the flares they really look unfinished and awkward.

Check with MSDS, he had some pieces. Also, he had a flared rear valance to fit with the GT flares. Gives the 9146GT a nice finished look.

I don't remember where I got my flared rocker panels, but it took some playing with to get to line up correctly.

Brian, a correct GT was SANS rear valence...but I do make a rear with the corrected ends to blend into the rear fenders. Inventory is nil right now , but getting ready to build a dozen.
A-I-R Fiberglass (ads in "Excell") owner Dan McLoughlin, makes side rockers and front piece...and will need some taming (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
Dude , where's my magazines....haven't seen one since GAF last year (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

Marty,

New issue went out about a week or so ago, I will pop another issue in the mail to you!

Didn't know you had such a 914 love-a-afair!

Hi Marty,

How do you think your rear valance would fit with SC flares. I've been looking for a deep valance with no cutouts for my dual outlet triad.
