Today I was able to play around with the idea of cutting out the old flares and seeing how the zg flares would look against the new wheels. First, fiberglass sucks to cut out (dust) and there were a million pop rivets in this thing....wasted time taking the front flares out because in the end...I will have to use old fenders to cut the right amount of metal out. As for the rears....the old flares were put on very nicely but now for the zg flares, way to much material was taken out. Just means more time has to be spend on the rear of the car.
Full lock and no rubbing on the frame rails......
Before I started to cut the rear flares out, I thought about keeping them in but the fronts were just to small. Also didn't want the CF ZGs to go to waste. Next step is to figure where I am going to mount the flares and start trying to build back the sheet metal. I might have to get two patch panels for the dog legs so they can be metal and not fiberglass/bondo.
