I'm not going to hate but I will say that your car was drop dead gorgeous before the flares.

I give you madd props for sticking this through man. It's one helluva undertaking to do something like that - especially with haters, bigots, and phonies giving you a hard time during the process.

If you like it - then rock the f*ck outta it! It's your ride - do whatcha want man.

I personally - love the flares - shows something "outside the box" and away from what people normally think of doing. I have my own opinions about it and how I'd change it to my taste - but that's why we do this......we do what makes us happy in the end.

Keep on keepin' on.

Everyone needs to be more supportive like this. I see so much hating and bad words to others

The concept of what you did was cool, I think it just wasn't put into action the right way. I give you props for sticking with it though, drive it until you get bored then do it right. I can tell in the picture the paint match is way off and you have alot of contrasting/uneven body lines. Everyone has got to start somewhere so learn from what went well with this and do it again, learn what isn't right and do it better next time.

I think the flares look good but what I really need to do is get the paint the right color cause it's off. the paint it off but the clear coat is what messed it up I need to try to make it shiner. I like how it came out but the flares still aren't don. Thank u for ur imput

Don't forget to paint your lip, it looked pretty faded. Your car will gain +10 sexy with a dark black spoiler

^ amen

 

[rar40941]

Lol ^

 

[ilovewheels]

do u have any pics of the rear fender cut? im curious on how u went about this, as i will hve to do the same if i ever finish my flares

 

[rar40941]

What I did is line up the flare to the door sketched what I wanted cut with a dremal then go from there if u go to my videos on YouTube u can see the steps

 

[EVADE]

Your replacing your drive axles again? I just did mines after they broke being slammed for 10yrs. BTW Ebay got a deal on um and they are the fatter 22mm size as the MSP's.

 

[rar40941]

ya but it was used thats y it broke but i am putting a big strain on the boots

 

[rar40941]

Hey guys just wanted to up date u what is going on. Right now my fenders are painted but look mat silver. This Friday I am going to paint them again but with a better clear so I am ready for the big Pleasanton meet. Also I callEd corksports and asked about the skid plate and it's ment for good sized rocks and rode drebry not to get in the engine bay. No skid plate is going to stop a huge rock going through it. it will slow it down though so I think I am going to get the plate. Tell me ur thoughts

 

[civickilla03]

if you get a skid plate being as low as you are you will spark off of EVERY dip in the road, it cuts the clearance by at least an inch, dont do it, get 18s

 

[Circuit]

I have some super aggressive 18's for sale Reg Check my thread on MOCC

 

[rar40941]

I called cork sport and they say its barly any difference on clearance though. I already do scrape when I hit dips like every where my sub frame hits all the time. I think it would be sick if I did get 18's

 

[rar40941]

Hey guys do u think if I get 18's I would hit my rear fender flares. Cause right now I have a 215-40-17 on a 9.75 wide. The next set up I want to be is 18x9.75 or 10 with a 205/40/18 how mix bigger should the wheel be compared to te 17?

 

[INeedMoarLow]

If you are going 18 I'd recommend a 35 profile tire just to cut down on diameter soooo maybe 215/35/18 or even 225/35/18

 

[rar40941]

A 205/40/18 I think would be smaller because it's a bigger stretch I think
