Fender Flares and Body kits

[Guest Grenade300]

I called MSA and asked if the fender flares they offer would work with the rear skirts, side skirts, and air dams. And the answer is no. Being that I am a very determind person, could some of you post some photos of street flares before they are colormatched to the car and some photos of front air dams (w/o bumper covers), side skirts and rear skirts (w/o bumper covers) before they are color matched to the car that way I can see just how much modification and trimming I am looking at to make these pieces work together before I buy them.

 

Thanks Guys.

NO, no, no . That's not the hybridZ way. We "throw" ourselves into our custom workings much in the "leap before you look" time honored manner . Otherwise it's scarry, realizing what might be required if we think too much.

 

Sorry, I've nothing to contribute at all to help you.

You are soooo right, I should know better by now.

 

Thanks anyways.

Here are the "street flares" riveted on my car.

Thanks Zlalomz, That's what I needed, It looks like I will need to do some minor modification to the rear shirt and to the side skirts. Not as difficult as I thought it would be. Nice Z by the way.

Nice car Zlalomz. Did you cut the fenders under the flares for the wider tires? I'm new to this as well. Thanks, Nikolai.

You need to cut the outer and inner fender in the rear and join them somehow. I welded mine and here is what I did. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7599&highlight=flares The picture is an orange car because I have two "73's and have done it on both of them. If you search there have been posts by Dan Juday and others on different methods.
