gretchen/jason Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Ive done some searches on here looking for pics or advice on rear wheel wells . Im looking to get flares for the wheel wells in the rear and wanted to cut out some of the stock lip and sheet metal if necessary as to run a wider tire and was wondering what to look for when cutting . What i mean is will i have to weld the 2 lips back together or add sheet metal to cover a gap . Im not to sure of what im getting myself into but it never hurts to try i guess .

Guest TeamNissan Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 One thing I ran into when I mounted mine that I noticed wasnt mentioned was the bundle for the rear harness was all the way down resting in the wheel well so when I cut the sheet metal I cut right through a few of the wires. Not really a huge deal but had someone warned me I'm sure it wouldnt have happened lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gretchen/jason Posted May 28, 2007 Author Share Posted May 28, 2007 Yes i know of this bundle of wires .Ive allready riped out the stock harness and rewired the entire car myself . What a job that was but i eliminated lots of unecessary wires as i call them . . Yes the IMSA flares i did want a set of those man that sucks .
