Lots more to be trimmed out, Back needs to come down another inch to level the right height so will probably end up trimming the guards up too the swage line on the body. Wish I had a coupe!
I would love shell sport style flares but im having trouble finding flares. I need a 100mm wide flare and no one has a flare that wide to suit a 13" wheel. Aerotech here in christchurch have a 75mm flare and said they could widen it too 100mm and make up a mold for me, unsure if I should go that way or not yet though. I bought a single flare to play with anyway

love it bro love it...with your skills you should make your own.

100mm wide flares are pretty big flares. I put 75mm flares on my coupe, they're pretty big I thought. They were 14" flares though, didn't fit that well to be honest. About all I could find back in 1998. From memory we cut up to the swage line too.

yeah 100mm is pretty big, Will probably just get the 75mm ones modified and a mold made. Its looking like the easiest route

sheet metal flare for the win (imo) similar to brwnwagons rally car, you can do it

He aint allowed metal flares in the class he is racing in. Strictly fibreglass

Atleast thats the way I interpreted the rules. I might be wrong, but the main reason i dont want too is Haydon and brent spent 40hrs a corner or near too it. Fibreglass flares are $40 a corner, so I can smash as many as I want off haha

Thats a classic call nick!
