As some of you know, the off-set on the rears that I got from Hugh made me a unexpected a widebody GT. Also illegal!. Picked up some material from Marcel, Cheers.

I wanted the look to be as unobtrusive as possible. When looking at the mini flares that Glynt had fabricated, I noticed that being on a flat plane and black they blended in some what with the black trim along the side of the fiero. Mine extend 2.5" a long the center top edge and taper in both front and rear in-line with the rear wheel off-set. I also trimmed them in an attempt to mimic the contours of the body moulding.

   I have a few pics to add to the thread, Nigel looking puzzled at the install.

 

It was nice having you over for the day, actually fun.  I have some wheel spacers that push the rear wheels out a bit on my car.  Might have to think about this mod just for the fun of it.  It would really keep the sides of the car clean during poor weather.
