This just got me thinking, wide fenders just look REALLY mean and this would add the curves i'm trying to get out of our boxes. Of course it wouldn't look right with out the right wheel and spacers. Anyone have any thoughts?

It would be pretty easily molded into my kit.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Only ONE person that I know of on .org has done fender flares right http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=399439

And it wasn't cheap from what I read. Probably cost him more to do the fenders and paint than what our cars are worth.

I guess because you do bodywork, you can do it though. But the first time you hit anything, the flare would just shatter as it's fiberglass??

BTW. He's running my bbk kit. heh

Hmmm... This might be a plan.... Too bad EVERYTHING will have to be molded now.

lol..... I say 'molded' to get ya in here. But this is what i'm thinking about. Sure, what do ya think? other than the mold issue.

I have some concern with the Urethane's physics with hot and cold. Fiberglass doesn't budge in heat. THe plan is to mold the seems with fiberglass. I think it'll hold up. AND ALOT of epoxy.

i think the 3rd gen's wheel wells are wide enough without those monstrocities on there. if you're planning on running a huge lipped wheel , maybe, but even then i think you have more than enough room in the wheel wells. to each his own, but, your car will go from clean and subtle to rice with a side of fries with those flares. i've seen smaller/more tasteful ones, besides, you have a grinder and a welder, widen yours instead

Why not just try something like this.

anything custon is done to make the owner happy, so if it makes you happy, then do it. somehow it turned into a bashing session. i simply think that the way our fenders look its practically looked rolled now(you have no idea how many people asked me about rolling my fenders, and its all stock...............well at least there it is) usually flares are added to cars like civics and accords, even the e36 because the fender drops down quickly and doesnt have alot of character. if you are planning on running wider wheels and need the space then do it, but if you buy wider wheels and they still fit on, leave it be, ya know?

i think a wider fender would be nice to use wider front wheels with to tackle understeering...

of course you can. everything on that car is functional, useful, and aerodynamically efficiant and nothing goes to waste, including those rear doors.. otherwise it wouldn't be a "race car"
