 |
|
Has anyone ever used those "JDM-style" bolt on black fender flares?
Something in tradition of those 6-bolt 993 GT(2) wheelarches.
Do they come in rubber? I would think rubber would fit better?
I'm very curious about how it would look on a 924 , especially on the front narrow fenders.
I would like to see some pics if possible. Any comment is appreciated. |

I seem to remember a yellow 924 that had VW style fender flares adapted. Can't find it at the moment, but it's the closest thing I can recall. Don't remember if it was fronts and rears or just fronts...

Found it. It's Mr. Mad's ProCharger 924:
 
 
There's a big thread on it somewhere here. Fronts only, as you can see.

Understood, but those flares started life as VW cheapies. Just thought it might be an option.

Something to compare with: the RX-7 (SA22 & FB3-S).
A perfect example of the use of fender flares imho

I like the look alot. Anyone good at photoshop? I think if they were the body color of a 924, they might look good.

Yeah, I'm been thinking about those for a while, but I thought I would mold them in once mounted. Isn't the D-product kit have fenders like Mr. Mad's? I think someone should try it and take some pictures
