Be aware, when fitting the 'flares' it is not just a matter of bolting them on. If the car is lowered, the wheel-arches have to be cut, and then the inner wheel-arch and the outer wheel-arch welded back together. There are 2 ways to afix the 'flares' to the body--a 'plain bolt-on' or 'bolt-on and blend in with filler'. I used the 'plain bolt-on' method, thinking that IF they got hit and needed replacement, it wouldn't be as big a job as the 'blend-in' style. I have a rubber trim between the 'flare' and the wing, and use 5 x 5mm button-head Allen-bolts on each wing to hold them in place. To date, I have had no problems. If you wish to contact me direct, I can send you pictures of my car and the distance that the wings have to be cut back (for a lowered car)[email protected]
