I like your flares because they fill the wheel well. Very nice

i really like the looks and style of those flares, however they still have the stuck on look. if you glassed them in i think it would look much better, but i understand the number of reasons not to.

I like the 1st one better. Less is more. Not sure I'm a fan of the built-in mud flap from the rear, once you get them on and car dropped, maybe it'll look better.

Second design and I agree a drop and aftermarket wheels will fill it nicely. I would buy.

the flares are just sitting against the mud flap. if they were going on for good you would need to cut the bottom of the mud flap off so it's flush with the bottom of the flare. i kind of like the first design better.
yeah the car is sitting up high right now from jacking it up. plus it has no motor, trans, interior, hood, etc. it could use some wider rims and tires now. those 11 in and 315s look small now.

thank you!! and thanks for all the kind words guys.
i guess you could mold them in if you wanted. they are made of fiberglass. except i wouldn't try and mold the rears in to the rubber bumper cover.
