    sorry for the iphone pics



    I love this thread, and love your car Eric.

    I have been thinking about getting the DTMfiberwerks flares, but have been waiting to hear what other peoples experience with them has been.

    How much more clearance do you think you have with these as opposed to the IE flares?

    Are you planning on running the same wheels and tires, or are you going wider? What size tires are you planning on running? Thanks.

        What was the work done on this car? Just trim the lower lip of the front and rear arc? Does anyone has wheel and tire specs??

        What tire could I use with this flare pull and trim? wheels 16x8 et20, suspension bilstein sport with H&R Sport 1.5" F and 1.25" R on late model 86' 325e

                      Me? The fronts are genuine M3 fenders cut and expended out ~1 inch. Rears are the fiber glass replicas you can get from sweden or bulgaria or wherever sells those cheap ones. But I modified those out another inch. The rears are peaky and still need some work. The fronts look stock.

                            WE cut the fender right on the edge to keep the lip at the end of the fender and just added metal as we needed.
