JMortensen Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Looks like these to me. http://www.zcarparts.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=50-1561 http://www.zcarparts.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=50-1560 I'm looking at the trailing edge of the flare and how it sticks out off of the body. Most of them try to come back to the body line, but this set doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olie05 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 they look like the Victoria British steel flares to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 The VB steel flares hook back in at the bottom IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Having had two sets of the VB flares in my hands in the recent past, I can say with pretty good certainty that those ARE the VB metal flares... $700 for four... When I had my discount, notice I say "HAD", they would have run you $600 plus shipping. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Well I could be wrong, but I distinctly remember the flare came back in towards the body line behind the tires front and rear, and that it didn't meet very nicely in that area. These are totally flat sticking out behind the tire, like the IMSA flare. Did a little searching: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=89290&highlight=steel+flare Unless they changed them, I don't think they're VB flares.

Mikelly Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Hard to tell, but Looking at the pic and thinking back through fog and grey matter, they look an aweful lot like the units I unboxed, test fit to my Z, and then shipped to Mark Icard... They are thin and you can pretty much bend and manipulate at will.... So we know who owns this car? That would give a definative answer! Big flares none the less!

EvilRufusKay Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 They definately look like the Victoria British ones to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synlubes Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 Thanks for all the help. I just just word from the car owner and they are IMSA flares front and rear. Mike, these are what Jim`s rear flares started out as. (get where i`m going with this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
