Judging by the look of things. It looks like those fenders were for a certain model car and it was retrofitted on his impreza. Look at the notches and cuts

I was looking into flares myself a while back. I figured if I really wanted flares. I'd just go widebody or cheap out and buy some s13 ones and mount em lol

those flares on the OP's picture of that wrx look like modified s13 flares. I don't think it matters if you get fronts or backs but thats what most people have been using. IF you get flares, you have to run pretty wide wheels or it looks retareded imo. Not really worth it unless you plan on throwing down some serious width track rubber.

BTW that car in the OP is a rwd 04 wrx drift car, something like that.

I bought the molds for them and can reproduce them whenever. I just had some made for the peanut eye too because people saw my car and asked for them. Recently has some done for the gc as my buddy needed them for his car with a cosworth longblock and a slew of other parts. 225s were NOT cutting it LOL.

yeah i have tons of this guys cars pics. hes from germany i think and his car is on stance nation for the most "facebook liked" wrx ever. he has two sets of crazy wheels ( work meisters and work equips ) and he drifts his car, hence the rwd conversion. i think im gonna have to get some s13 flares and make em work cuz im loving them.. its gorgeous. ill run some 18x12's in the rear and 18x10's in the front. or atleast thats the plan.
