what are your thoughts on custom pumped/flared guards and rear quarters?? i remember a while ago when autodisposals had that blue monster with massive flares.... at the time, it looked aweful to me (mustve been the lack of wide rims to fill in the huge flares) but when i saw it again at Utopia, it just looked sweet....

now im thinking, might go get some flares if i dont sell the car..... been looking at some cars with custom jobs (inspired by the AbFlug supra)... and they just look sweet.....

how much ya's reckon it would set me back to get some FG custom panels made up??? if it aint too big a job, i might get into it myself.....

as long as they have rubber to fill them they look good
not sure on how much but imagaine around the $1000 for a guard also with the rear quarters to fit decent rubber with pumped out guards this will need metal cut out

are you talking wheels arch flares or like SEX Doctor (200sx) or actually pumping the whole car (wide body kit). Ive seen a couple and just the flares dont look to good even if you have the rubber to fill, Sex Doctor has 10" rubber on the back, and it still looks strange.

nah dude!

just go some vertex or m'sports front and or rear guards, they are nice and phat and have that sexe brake vent on the back of the guards, like on the 7th heaven 180sx or most Jap. drift cars.

c-red in WA sells them
