A few years ago I had some outstanding body work done by (of all things) a Dodge/Chrysler dealership on 441... I think it was near Sunrise Blvd. That's SOOO helpful, I'm sure; but for the life of me I can't remember the name. First the mind goes... :crazy:

Sorry; if I think of it I'll post a new message.

If you find out how and don't destroy the flairs in the process, would you be interested in selling them.

LS6,
I think flares are COOL but then thats just me. Before you pry them off make sure you "want them off " I think it will be a very expensive job to get someone to put your body back to stock. And if anyone is interested i have an extra set of L-88/ZL-1 flares (new never mounted) ...redvetracr

I'd be interested in the flairs. I have been looking for a set. Do you have front and back or just the back. Plus, what would you want for them
