Pics of my new fender flares

Anyone wanna post them for me? If so leave an e mail addy.

They as youll see arent even close to finished yet. I should be able to fit atleast a 9" wheel out back, and a 9" up front! I made the flares from fiberglass which I set up on a piece of bent plexi. The sideskirts will set out a couple of inches as well as to tie the front and rear together, unlike most/all of the widebody kits available. Then I am painting it gunmetal with a purple pearl in the clear.

I will be cutting the stock metal under the flares. The flares are almost just like the ones seen at

Those should look sharp. Are you going to make a body kit that fits with that as well?

yeah my front bumper is an "Octane" front for a Integra with the top half of the stock FC cover molded to it, and its actually about 1" too wide on each side so its perfect. Also the rear flares on the back side will end at the molding and have a horizontal triangle shaped piece to blend it back into the body. This will allow the bottom half of the rear tire to be visible from behind, which should look pretty bad ***!. And between the flares down the side I will fabricate a 2.5" horizontall "step" which my Black Widow(modded from a Civic) sideskirts will be molded beneath. For the underside of the rear I use to have the outsides(cut out the center) of the Erebuni rear cover, but I think I am going to ditch them, and try to fabricate a Carbon Fiber rear underspoiler like the ones on all the Top Secret race cars or Amemiyas 3rd gens.
This a fairly long term project, but I hope to have all the bodywork and paint done within 2 months, then I need to finish my CF dash replacement and get my turbo rebuilt, and I am off to win races and shows!
