Do these flares look OK?

[RB26powered74zcar]

Or should I put the set of oem ZG's I have already, that are painted black?

 

The ZG's (not shown), or these MSA fiberglass flares, painted the color of the car?

I personally like the looks of the ZG's. Those flares look kinda "bubbly" to me. No offense to those who like "bubbly"

I know which will let you run wider rubber. Those ones. What else matters?

Correction Joel! Those are MSA street flares.

[JustinOlson]

If those Street flares where expoxied to the car I'd say go for it. I like those MSA street flares when they are molded on.

Also, I think the car needs to be lowered a bit more to make the street flares look right. The car is sitting too high to make them look good.

You could also do the bolts like Zhadman did, he bolted his street flares on, I liked that idea.

[veritech-z]

You could just send whichever ones you arent' using down my way...I need something to fill out my new fascia look. I like not body colored flares better than body colored flares, but the street flares are pretty cool looking. I'd be tempted to bolt them on and paint them gloss black.

I vote for the street flares. The ZG's have a nice retro look but the flares will allow some serious rubber.

[Challenger]

They look terrible, so terrible you need to throw them in a box and mail them to me for proper disposal.

I think so too..... I had to raise it up to be able to drive it around for now. Good thing I had coil overs.

 

I kinda like the street flares also, but was thinking of going the body color. After some thought.... they would look killer in a satin black, installed like ZG's, using rib-nuts to attach them.

 

I actually kinda like the look I have now, with no flares.... .

I raised it up enough to where it doesn't rub, unless I hit a big bump, or put somebody else in the car.... oh well, back to the flares....

 

thanks guys, for your input!!

I like the wheels you've got in that picture WAY better than the ones in your sig, J. I like the roller skate look (wide tires, no flares, kind of looks like an old school roller skate) too, but flares also can look nice.

[Sparks280zt]

 

 

I like this method of install.

[stony]

Joel im not gonna use mine. 150 + shipping and there yours. one has a very smal crack but teh clor is very close to what you havel allready

 

[Meaty69Maro]

The car is going to look badass which ever one you choose. The amount of gap in between the tire and fender will make it or break it.

Anyone handy with photoshop?

 

How about one each of bonded and blended body color and satin black?

 

 

J. I think bonded and blended in body color would look great on your car.

 

Depends on the airdam you use though, Have you chosen one?

 

The car looks killer so far.

I am not a fan of ZGs or any other bolted on flares.

 

So, I say, "Bond on and blend in." Go for the smooth look.

[dzeyene]

I prefer the carbon looking ZGs, but those flares look pretty cool, too!
