i like yours and im curious to see how they would look on the peanut eye. yours is more sleek and flush looking. i want more aggressive. is it possible to make it so the rivets show more?

This guy modified the front bumper piece to fit his front lip but you get the idea:

He didn't put the door piece on yet. Probably not possible to make the rivets show more.

LIC should be coming out with some really nice flares too shortly which would probably work for many more people than mine. I've found it quite hard to find wheels that flush out these flares lol. 18x11 +17 were sunken

yes sir, I get my rears for my race car on Thursday...then its full production ready for anyone else.


Karlton's look great! We're just going a different route with ours. Since weight/aero is everything in the racing we do, we're doing dry carbon to save as much weight as possible. The rear flares on our car are expected to be about 8-12oz and won't require any hardware, although it accommodates for it as well but its hidden if you choose to use them (of course depending on which route you go, you might need to modify fender but this isn't 100% necessary for a "look" if thats what one is going for).


Here is our car (which is about to change in less than 2 weeks). Wheel Tire combo in this pic is 18x10 +32 275/35/18 (we also run 18x10 +30 285/30/18 w/o issues).




Fronts we're doing a complete redesign and its expected in a few months tops. We have so many parts in the works its been crazy around here. We have dry carbon roofs now available (also get these on thursday), knuckle assemblies are almost ready for full production, dry carbon doors are done and ready, dry carbon trunk, next is dry carbon hoods as well, also have ABS spacer rings, etc...

You can always make your own. I also thought Karlton had flares for the GCs as well.

Someone is developing one for GC's. They are based on the same molds as xtremes.

Thanks Gil yup they are now done. The only problem is there won't be any final pics with wheels on the ground as my friend recently took EVERYTHING out of the car and swapped it all to another shell. This frame was pretty tweaked. And he's not putting the flares on the other rs as it has a aerosim cf widebody on it already. Anyone want a shell with a tweaked frame? lol.
