Reply With QuoteInteresting way of going it, looks very smick though
Hi All, I have just got some photos of the flares in the gallery.
Used some 1.6mm chequer plate 90mm wide, a strip of 6mm rubber 57mm wide and LOTS of rivets.
The tree key ingredients of a landy... Aluminium, rubber & rivets.
Doesn't look too bad for a weekend job.
The CP had to be joined as I could not get a single piece long enough at the time.
Looks good with the JT2's on but the OE Generals are a bit narrow...
Total cost was about $130.00 plus beer (all projects have a plus beer component)

Looks great, very unique way to extend the flares out.

There are two types of people in this world, good and bad. The good sleep better, but the bad seem to enjoy the waking hours
Strength test coming up tomorrow.
Off to Gembrook on a club trip and it should be a little damp up there....
Had a 20k service and the idiots cleaned the car again. When WILL they learn.
Passes the strength test with flying colours.
I think I might have to set up shop. I had several people asking me to make some ??

I'm not surprised goblin, they look great, and retain the colour coded flares. I wouldn't be surprised if you get a few requests, and the best part is that they would be able to be made for heaps of different vehicle types.

Goblin I need to do this for a ute project I have. So mine are front only. Did you have to cut the inside of the flare off where it seats up inside the mudguard? I also imagine the rubber strip sits under the chequer plate between it and the flare to get the spacing right. Is this correct?
An explanation of how it fits together would be most helpful.
Regards, Barry
