Ok guys, was at the good guys show today and saw a sick yellow sn95 with fender flares. Was pretty subtle but totally caught my eye. Looking to get a set guy said he spent like 160 on them so im on the hunt. Anyone know what type of flares these are? Picture to come soon

Can you post a before and after when you're done so we can see what it looked like before it went to shit

I threw up a little in my mouth...

To each their own.
I plan on autocross my car so flares to help with tire width isnt a bad look. If you guys dont have a positive comment then keep it to yourself

Posted by Mineralgt (Member # 9909) on :

I actually think it looks good and unique!

Posted by LXjames (Member # 10791) on :

Why not do a fender pull instead?? WAAAAAY more subtle and quite effective.

Posted by NEIGHT (Member # 8741) on :

That's not subtle at all, nor does it look good....

If this is an "auto cross mod", that's complete bullshit. this is what the dumbasses do to their WRX, mazdas, and other hellaflushed vehicles for tire fitment... your sn95 has big enough hips to rock some 18x11 and a 335 tire... no reason to even consider flares unless you get the wrong offset.

Don't listen to this bs from others. If you are running wider tires and you are on offset front A-arms it may be needed. On my '97 I ran into issues with 275's rubbing on the outer edge of the fender under hard cornering. The rear to be adjusted down on my coils I couldn't fit more than 285's. if I jack the height up a bit 315's all day. But it really depends on how low the car is, what suspension setup you are running.

Frankly, don't listen to the negative comments, over have these guys just go straight. Fastest corner they take is the one to the return road.

For good ones that fit the car well, check out Tiger Racing products. Griggs Racing sells them.
