I'd like to see how this comes out! How will you be doing the color matching?

[Frenchee]

Im confused. DId u make those flares? Or did u buy them. What is that first piece of metal looking flare thing for? TO patch up the fender?

[egas]

hi there,

the color is going to stay original - chamonix weiss.

i bought the flares, the piece of metal you see in the picture is to suport the flare, and at the same time it gives strength to the car, so you dont have any torsion on the chassis

in the next weekend i will put some photos of the car already painted

by the way, do you guys know here can i buy a "cheap" set of bbs E30 or an HTNs???

all the best

hello,

the flares cost about 800€, bought in "OLD RACERS", its a company in portugal - Lisbon of old racing cars. i think the flares comes from France.

you have in germany a company that seels those to. were do you live?

it fits very very well in the car, and super lightweight, make just some small ajustments, i have a album were you can see the work on the car, made by me, and the old owner. at the time the car is alredy painted, but i have no photos yet.

[egas]

cheers

humm

i know the Fernando car, very very nice. but the rear flares are diferent from mine, fernando rear flares cover the tire a bit, mine is like a semi-circle.

do you try korman fast: http://www.kormanautoworks.com/index.html

in europe you have:

http://www.schmidt-gfk.de/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=10&Itemid=11 (very very good)

Korman frt flares get bad reviews...

the rears are good.

yes fernando has the korman style rear. The GS look/yours is more open..... correct.

thanks for the websites.

[egas]

my front flares fits very good in the car, but you always have to cut here and there, but not much...the only thing i do in mine is to cut like 3mm next to the turn signal.

i dont know the company name in france but my flares are the same that Michael Cahsel sells

sad the front flares from Korman arent good, because i dont know about the shipping cost from europe to US, the body kit is quite expensive, so you have to see if is good buying in europe and then ship to US. maybe its better if you buy korman kits and make some adjustments
