nunya Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 The flares don't look bad at all, how much abuse you think they gonna be able to take though molded in especially? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 There is a Japanese company called elford that makes a wide variety of aftermarket flares. I haven't had much luck finding them since I got back to the states though. They are all over auctions.yahoo.co.jp, but all of the listings state that they do not ship out of mainland Japan. check this link fender flare listings on yahoo japan I realize that wasn't very helpful, but try searching for elford. indigent. For all that, might as well look into the Icelandic ones also, they make the real wide ones. Dealing with and aranging payment and shipping from either country is a PITA. You would probably end up paying at least $1000 for flares after shipping, duties and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 here's a little teaser pic, ill post up more when its finished: The molding work looks good, but the angle looks like the gauges will be pointed at the ceiling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitemedoughboy.com Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 The molding work looks good, but the angle looks like the gauges will be pointed at the ceiling? they're pointed right at the drivers head, or at least my head. heres a shot of them mocked up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrimGreg Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Cool, they look right in the mock up, must just be the angle it's sitting in the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitemedoughboy.com Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 yea thats what i was thinking.... but for a weekend "mudder" (as they call it on here) or a mall crawler, i say go for it. would be good for a pre-runner in the desert also. now if someone could take those off, make a mold out of them and cast them in a poly or rubber, i would be all over them.... oooh better yet an oversixed cut-out version for the 2 dr. guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazzyMax Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Off course that these Fender Flares in FG will be used only for Mall trails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
