Hi all,

I have done lots of flaring of panels and prefer the look over fiberglass flares. unless they need to be huge.

To look good the wheels have to fill out the bodywork or the flares just cover the wheels (sorta the same thing).

Front guards have to be removed and the standard edge opened out. Draw a line where the new flare will extend to.

Using a pear shaped mallot work the new shape into a sand bag or similar, gradualy stretching the metal to get close to the desired shape and size before finishing the flare of with a planishing hammer and dollys.

To finish off the edge is refomed using a convex planishing hamer and dolly.

It could be metal finished or a very light skim of filler to get rid of a few hammer marks.

It can be almost a factory look if done well.

I can do this for any one that wants it done but freight could be a prob for the interstaters. I would have to know wheel/tyre suspension and ride hight combo.
or have the car.

There is one example in my photos on the coupe, i didnt flare these that much but removed some material before working the flare.

BTW there would be a cost involved as it takes time to produce a good result.

Or i could coach people on the phone if they wanted try to do it themselves.

Cheers, Simon.
