Thats how much it costs not to look bodgey, looking good Chronic, how much did you trim? Didn''t the sliders meet the original guard???

Why are they so crap? Is it hard to fit them or are they just manufactured poorly?

Look alright to me... :)

Those Flares look fine Chronic , color matched :cool: it's front of your rock sliders needing a slight cut and trim so their inline with your flares one the front ones which are slightly protruding forward past the finish line of Flares and you can a cut and weld a plate it will look much better.

yeah they come up all right but to start with $800 for a set of fibre glass flare that’s expensive they weren’t trimmed properly They where chipped all over and they forgot to pack the screws I had a complete front noise cone made for Mazda cheaper then that, but in the land of Land Rover its the case of what other options is there :(

Anyway a lot has been cut out, I had to trim the side step and for now I will trim the trimming on the seal a good inch was cut out of the rear doors :)

Mate, she came up dodn't she!

That is most impressive, I really like it. The flares I think are looking excellent too, I wouldn't be sweating about them. How is the tyre clearance?

Tyre clearance is excellent, went out to Appin and the tyres tuck in under perfectly.

The quality of off road handling has improved a great deal I don’t seem to be throwing wheels in the air as much its able to get up rocks better obviously LOL :cool::cool:

I use to get tyre scrub with the 265 coopers on the controller arm, the off set of these wheels do push the stance wider but having said that 315 properly be a very tight squeeze and probably would scrub. The Simex are perfect in profile and width however finding another tyre 290x90 is going to be hard to find in any other tread :)

I do beleive that the tryes maybe the cause of the ACE playing up it did come after :(

Nice! Very nice! Thats what I want to do with mine.

What size are the Simex? 34s?

By the way...like the Bilsteins....want some of them too...:D
