Looks the muts nuts ! :cool:

Use have an arch roller or howd use flare the archs Matthew ?

what did ye use to flare em? just a length of pipe?

want something similar myself.

looks well, should go lower on the rear!

Wanna do mine

they completely transform the car dont they! made mine when i had em !

Cheers lads

We used the heat gun and arch roller

all those lovely beautiful flares you see on cars from the states all have filler and are painted again. this is as good as your guna get without painting, as soon as you bend the inner lip the paint cracks no matter how warm it is

i like it, rough and ready for the job at hand. fuck havin it mint and scared to drive it :D

did you have a heat gun or did you use a hairdryer?? hairdryer will do fuck all

i made these fit my arches without cracking any paint , i think you went a bit too extreme on the angle of the flare, you can widened the arch and pull it out by not doing such a big angle.

but back to the point , the wheels look unreal on the car!!!!

yes nicholas we used a heat gun lol


yeah see the moto for the day was IGNORANT FLARE

i wanted the arches to be as in your face as the wheels are

subtle flare is ok but IGNORANT FLARE will crack paint
