nagaz Posted April 21, 2010 Author Share Posted April 21, 2010 I've got a new set I'll let go... PM me. Are the flares you have MSA street flares or "ZG" style bolt on ? I know it's a pain but could you email me a pic of the set you have? very interested! & thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-ya Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 The flares in the photo are the MAS racing flares. Maybe MAS made them for MSA? I have a set too. I might use them as I am not a fan of the ZG look. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logan1 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 How does the size of these flares compare to the ZG flares? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) How does the size of these flares compare to the ZG flares? The rear flare is a 3" increase from stock. If you can find the same spec, then you have your answer. I want to say ZGs are an inch and a half or two inches wider. I'm pretty sure MAS did make them for MSA, but they don't make them anymore and no longer have the molds.

T-Bone028 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 And here is what it should look like after they are molded in and smoothed. Just remember that fiberglass and metal dont always sit well together. Although I dont have any cracking/lifting yet, it is still a distinct possibility down the road. They have been on my car for about 8 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zlalomz Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) The ones rb26powered74zcar has in the first pic are the same ones. (The green car is mine). From what I saw of MAS flares, the fronts looked different from the Motorsport Auto "Street Flares" (not as convex of a bubble). FYI MSA contacted me about my set and wanted to buy them to make a new mold. Maybe you guys should work something out with them!

JMortensen Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Thanks for the help jon , i'm very determine to find this style of flare for our project. Just reading my previous quote there and I worded it pretty badly. The street flare is 3" wider than stock ZG is 1.5-2 inches wider than stock. That's going by memory on the ZG, so might double check me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
