t-tom Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I just got my flares from MSA. Did anyone else's seem cheap. They dont fit the body very well and are kind of crudly made. Or is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003z Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I got some about a month ago. They don't lay right on the car, but have to be bent around the form of the fender. They actually are a pretty good quality, once you figure them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaime240z Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I have the MSA carbon fiber ZG flares. I think the only thing I liked about them was the fit. Just take your time when fitting them and drilling holes if you decide to. I wasn't too happy with the CF finish though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t-tom Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 The body shop That has my fairlady will be doing the install. But even they said the flares where not very well made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Putting fender welting between the flares and the body makes the fit 1,000% better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
