front and rear wheel flares

i really like the look of Pettit's rear wheel fender flares... but, i'm a dorky engineer and REALLY love symetry. is there anyone who makes similar flares for both front and rear? i've seen a few pictures here and there scattered about but never any info on them.

like this picture

Those fender flares are from a small company called (literally) "Little Garage" . . . Jt-imports will be able to get ahold of those for you. They're cheap from what i remember.

is JT still around? I thought i saw he was shutting down/or had already

IMO they are a little too flared on the front. I agree that none on front and some on back looks odd as well.Buut, i do like them better than most widebody front fenders
And they would need to be molded on to the car to be done correctly IMO

Yeah there was a post a little earlier in the weekend that said the shop was closing. It also stated that the site said they were shutting down. BUT i just went and can find no evidence of that. Nor can i seem to find the thread about the topic.
So disregard that comment i guess Unless someone can clarify for me

Sad but true apparently. But you can still get in before the ball drops!


He states it in here towrads the end.
