I know we have the frp/layered carbon ones out there the usual ones that most people rock... but check these wider puppies out.. would be awesome for us grip folks and well... even drift guys who wana go negative crazy heh

Fries · 05-24-2010, 08:00 AM

Except it would look like garbage.

GripTerror · 05-24-2010, 08:08 AM

You mean like your face

Well to each their own. Old school race cars rocked these kind of flares.

Some people hated this guy's ride some people loved it. I love it. Depends how you put it together.

sr20sean · 05-24-2010, 08:22 AM

they already make flares like that lol

GripTerror · 05-24-2010, 08:31 AM

No they don't like the blue car yes

japslapsilvia · 05-24-2010, 08:37 AM

like this??

KA24sleeper · 05-24-2010, 09:09 AM

Ummm they do make those fenders, i beleave they are 6666 bunny fenders that is off a some euro site. Cant remember which one though but i remember they sell them

don_bagz · 05-24-2010, 09:16 AM

97240TB · 05-24-2010, 09:32 AM

I was just about to ask that. It didn't appear that those were some cheap rivet on extensions. That looks like an actual fender pull on all 4 corners and IMO I think that car looks great.

ka240zouki · 05-24-2010, 10:50 AM

All of them work except the top one that the OP wants.

There is that Yellow S14 with flat top flares like the OP wants.
They are vented, but someone find the pic so you can see how square flares dont fit a rounded car.

Box and square flares are for boxy and square cars (datsun 510, E30, Mercedes, etc.)

Except 510's look dope with bubble flares and I actually think the bubble flares on 510's look better than the box flares. LOL sorry Eric I could not resist.

D.Adams · 05-24-2010, 12:36 PM

make these also

shiftdrift · 05-24-2010, 12:39 PM

I actually think the black s13 looks pretty good.

yeah, some guy hand crafted those into the fender of the blue s13.. so, technically, its the only one of its kind.. lol

badicalradical · 05-24-2010, 01:08 PM

I think we need these flares for our cars. Found this sweet thing on craigslist.

Datsun 240Z FS/FT

lazysk8er2 · 05-24-2010, 01:09 PM

the coupes are boxy lookin maybe it would look better on those than a hatch.

and yes there is a yellow s14 i had the picture but it disappeared

I seriously hope you are joking. Those flares look horrid IMO. LOL thats a hideous thing that has been done to that Z.

I have seen lots of race Z cars in my day with great bodywork. The one above is not.

Those were just regular flares bondoed onto the stock fenders, I know cause I asked.... They were cracked when I saw them sometime last year.... More pain in the ass than anything.... If you have $$$ Have a sheetmetal work just weld it... Its not that difficult....

Yes quite joking. Just found it too special not to share. Its the new Lambararri Z.

ericcastro · 05-24-2010, 01:33 PM

my car with flares, 15x8's on KYG shocks and rsr springs.

If we are posting Z's, lets post the ......primortial Z or something??
lost the book mark.

I love the Box Fender 510's Dave.
The problem is the tiny wheels they put on.
But if I remember, 14's are the optimal size for racing datsun 510,lol.

Matej · 05-24-2010, 01:48 PM

Flares look goofy on any car made after 1988.

GripTerror · 05-24-2010, 02:53 PM

That red datsun is ugly as sin.

Well alot of DTM race cars rocked these deep flares. To each their own. I love that black sil80 drift car.

The corvette looks woah.. out of the future except rusted lol. That thing can fit WIDE wheels totally bad ass if it weren't for the rust (hah another thing it has with our cars generally speaking)

And the jun car is not that deep even:

Then there's this ugly shit which seems completely useless:

*jspecusa* · 05-25-2010, 02:44 AM

n2 flares has been around since the 80's
we sold a few set in the past, companies like
Arita speed and rocket bunny still makes them, just expensive
that's why you don't see them often.
there's no point to copy them either because the amount of people
willing to buy it is not many so price point will still be high where
it's not profitable to make.

GripTerror · 05-25-2010, 06:36 AM

N2 huh? Awesome

**ThatGuy** · 05-25-2010, 07:07 AM
