I would like to re-radius the wheel openings on my 65 project. I like the look of the GT-350-SR but I'm un sure how this is done (correctly). Has anyone done this or know the correct procedure how to do this. I'm sure fiberglass flairs are used. Need info.

I've never stumbled accross anyplace that sells the flares already made. Tho I must admit, I've never looked either.

I think you'll end up having to do some sort of a custom job.

Most guys tend to opt for widening the wheel wells over flaring the fenders.

They have a new style coming out all metal, be sure to inquire about those and from what I understand they can go as big as a 6" flare for the 65-66 & 67-68

Click to expand...

If you look in the link thats what they are selling!! but I saw nothing about the 6 inch ones. but I wouldnt buy 6 inch flares unless i didn't care about the looks and was just using it for racing. I think they would look bad. Just my opinion though.

6" flares sound more like wings than flares...

They will be a sweet setup for those that need them, and can be made up to 6" for the 65-66-67-68 depending on your needs. Starts at Post # 157.

No, They can be made up to 6 " ,the same way.
A 6 " curved flare is not that big - the one pictured is maybe a 2".
