alright, so back in october/november some fool had a run in with my car and didnt decide to leave a note(hit and run).. so what i want to do is put fender flares on my car because the damage is to the rear quarter panel, and these will cover up all of the damage(most at least) making it very cheap for me...

so i just wanted some opinions to see how you all like it and what not.

i will put spacers on the wheels of course.. so the wheels sit flush kinda, and the car will be lowered 2.5 inches all around..

heres my car:


and heres some pics of cars w/ the fender flares...also if you have pics or know someone with these please post up.

no

 

Those flares don’t allow you to run much wider/lower offset wheels since they taper into the fender well. If you push out the wheels the tires will rub against the inside of the flare. You could trim them for clearance, but that area is used to mount the flare. I checked these out on Jeff’s car carefully since I was seriously considering them, but you cant be slammed on wider wheels with them.

 

ugly imo

 

i know all that HK... its jus that i can afford to push my wheels out a little, right now they are 7.5 +42, so i can push them out about 5mm more.. since that is the smallest hub centric spacer. i dont wanna go 15mm because thats WAY TOO MUCH..

 

yup, that's ugly

 

looks ugly man dont do it

 

reminds me of the bug. so i say NO.

 

Seen 'em once in real life, wasn't a fan. Definitely negatory on that one.

 

wow you all really dont like it?

 

its one of those things that will bug you when you do something

taking off the front bumper!

not compatible with mud guards

does it even work with the OEM kit.

just ditch the idea and spend it on something else.

Function > Form

 

well this saves me a GRIP of money because i dont have to fix the quarter panel then, thats my main interest

 

by quater panel you mean the part in between the hatch window and the rear quarter window.

i have a mark on mine, i just got over it and learned to suck it up.

 

I like fender flares, but not those. Looking to get the tc gt wide body kit and it comes with flares... but i wouldnt go with the ones your talking about

My two cents

 

the fenders stick out enough and your car looks pretty clean right now so IMO i wouldn't

 

negative

 

ya so its a bit more than just a scratch, and by 1/4 panel, i mean everything behind the passenger door.

the rest can be fixed easily and repainted...but the parts along the arch we have on top of the wheel well(not sure what its called) takes ALOT of labor which is really expensive on my part

 

i dont know if its the pics, but it doesnt look that bad... id say suck it up, save the cash, and do it right (get it fixed)

 

its definately the pics... its B-A-D

i guess i should prolly do it the right way.. cuz i really like the TURY's front bumper, and that is basically why i made this thread

i cant get the body kit if i have these, but im still not sure

my friend has had these on this car, and they looked sweet, almost made the car look better than stock.

 

no thoose wouldnt look good. it gets rid of the ULTRA SLEEK lines that tC already has
