Karlton flares for wagons!

I know this is on the "other" site, but perhaps some of the local people would be down for this as well. We are trying to get enough wagon people together to get some of the infamous Karlton flares made for the WRX wagon body styles. Check this thread out and sign up if you are interested!

Thanks! Going to need it, but I am pushing for it so I can run some wide rubber for Auto-x.

Nice. You're going to need a lot of people that are guaranteed to buy them. The initial cost for the flares isn't going to be cheap. It's a lot of money for the mold.

Yup. Trying to get at least 6 in the thread. The problem is different styles for each year for the front. But hopefully at least one year style gets made so there is something to work with.

I think they might have shown up on SF already, or these are someone else's?

Well, it is a SF... Might have looked better if they were matched to the bottom color and the rears look better than the fronts. I am sure the Karltons will look good on the SG/SH

Also if you notice the front of those z flares on the sf are off, makes it look bad. But overall not a bad look if he did some more work

Indeed, that is what I am trying to stay away from. I want it to look good like yours do.

I don't think it looks awful, but yes, could use some work.

Sponsor my car and I'll do it.

I like them but $650 seems pretty steep.
