Awhile back I used to see a guy selling the fender flare attachment that can be molded over the wheel well (since we got ripped off with that part of our car).

I cant seem to find that anymore. Has anyone seen these or know if they are still available?
Thanks
RC

These guys still list them.

There's always a set showing up on the corral classifieds about once every couple months.

Thanks

Does anyone know if those are sets of two for fronts only or for a set of four?

Dark Pony....where did you get yours?

Also...If I get them, I wanted them to be "bondo-ed" in to the body to look like it was part of the car, like the new ones...not like an attachment.

Thanks

They came on the car when I bought it. They were put on by the second owner I believe. The owner before me said they came from Shinoda when he gave me the rundown of parts. I agree with the bondo idea. I hate how they look right now theres little gaps here and there.
My painter left them on when he did the front clip so if I take them off I think the clearcoat might flake off with it. If it doesnt I want rid of them, I'm all for originality but they arent my style

If I decide on getting them, it will be a year or 2 down the road...so save this thread and keep me in mind if you DO get rid of them.

WIth wider tires and lowered car they look good IMO!
Thanks

They look alot better when its lowered your right. I have since lowered it but havent gotten any good pics. I'll snap a few in a couple days and post them up to give you a better idea.

Also with spacers, so that the flare "drop off" lines up with the outer lip of the tire. This is my car with 1" spacers.

I've got the 1 inch hubcentrics on the rear. they line up really nice with the flares. Of course a 10.5 would look better back there

I do not like those fender flares. They look "Out of place". But that's just me. I like clean body work.

I would say the same thing normally, but I saw them on a 94 stang once that were done "the right way" and it looked really good with the car lowered and the back tires flush.

I think if they went down onto the front and rear bumpers they'd look so much better. Maybe something to think about RC?

True, since that is how they appear on the newer mustangs...like a continuous piece from the bumper up around to the side.

Exactly, if I do decide to keep mine and dump a little more into the looks department I'll probably end up going that route. Now I'm really contemplating it

fender flares went out of style in the 80's bro. "NO" don't do it. SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THE motor. That's what i would do...

Actually they only "went out" 94-98.. The foxes all had them, all the 99+ have them...all the nice luxury sport cars have them....etc. Once again we are the Bastxxxd step children.
