I am really digging the bolt on look. Especially on the red fc that flatout1 posted. I really want to do a 80's retro look to the car instead of the huge BN kits I see errrywhere (no offense, just not my style). Might have to photo-shop a nice lip spoiler and some old school 16's. Watanabes? ;p

That's what I was thinking, with oldshcool watanabe's and 90's styling it would look good, but I just don't feel the look of it with modern styling and 17/18" wheels.

I don't see a lot of FC's with bolt on flares so I was wondering what it would look like. This is the only pics I've found that has the standard "bolt on" flares on an FC. The flares themselves look a little too rounded to me but if they were extended down to the bottom of the side skirt and bumpers and a little flatter, I think it would be an interesting look. apparently no ones doing it so it's definitely unique.lol. opinions guys?

the last pic is an AE86 with the classic flared look found on a lot of them. I think it would look good if the flares were flat like these except go all the way down.

I’ve been looking for a bumper like that everywhere, so you know what it is called? And where did you get it? Thank you!
