got my rear fender flares on...

[Philo]

Interesting look - you might just be able to pull it off.


So they were a PITA to actually fit to the car? Who made them?

I don't care for fender flares on an E30, and tried to talk him out of it. They are IE's fender flares. We came to the conclusion that IE made them for the 2002 and said, "Look, it's kind of the same shape as an E30." and then marketed them so.

To make them fit we had to cut off about 4" to match up with the bumper trim. Then we had to cut out the fuel door. After that a good amount of torch heat was applied to bend and shape the flare to the car. It was a bunch of work for the price paid, they are just plastic pieces you have to custom fit.

Crazy. I can't believe the stuff people sell.

Crazy. I can't believe the stuff people buy.

Fixed.

Good job, I agree I think your car could use a little moar low but anyway I can definitely appreciate the work you're doing. I really like the front end.

I wanna see how color matched flares look on an e30.

that would be a hint that your wheel/tire setup was ill-fitting. apparently you took it as a hint to hack up the car, more power to ya.

Uhh...

I love this car. The flares (needs fronts), the splitter and turnbuckles, the airdam, everything. Keep it up!

I agree with you, this car had this functional look going for it in the first place. This isn't a mint MT2 or anything so I love it for being unique.

I like it.

[Wh33lhop]

Needs the fronts, as of now it just looks like a hack job.

Where'd you get the splitter? Shoot me a pm

[RickSloan]

i wasn't really sold on IE flares...

until now, def needs the fronts, and i'm not sure how i like the color combo, but overall i like what is going on with your car!

looks like i might have to get me a set of these bad boys

I don't understand. Those rear wheels don't look overly wide and the offset looks pretty high. Are you running spacers in the rear?

thanks for the feedback guys... its crazy how split the reaction is haha

this was my reasoning 100%, the car was rough when i got it. the majority of money spent on the car is all transferable parts... the smoked hellas, wiper setup, glass roof, all my interior crap, ect. can all be swapped over if i come accross a chasis worth a full resto.

its custom...
i CNC routed it out of aluminum.

adapters... the wheels are porsche fitment

[dude8383]

I definitely dig it. Now get to work and mount those fronts!

[VicSkimmr]

ahhhhhh that explains it.

[distorto]
