Yeah I know that, but they could be trimmed back, the important thing is that they are a good fit, where they meet the body.

And they wouldnt be a good fit to the body as he has chopped most of the body away. You would be better off starting with those universal ones.
Or smaller tires?
Whats the specs on the wheel/tire?

Could you pump the guards out instead?
Gal (Andy Z181200) has a guard roller that he part owns with mates, could borrow that???
Please dont flare it, flares can stay with starlets and ke70s.

yeah im with ya they dont really suit datsuns but im running out of options ive rolled and stretched the gaurd on one side bout 30mm just covers the tread not quite the side wall but looks gay coza low profile tyre ive got so much gaurd clearance (height) now which could be solved with flares
