I don`t think I will mold them in this time, because then it will crack the paint jobb if I hit something on the track..

Will be easier just to change the flares than do a new paint job..

These are about 70MM wider then stock..

Awesome project! Not sure about the flares, tho...Maybe it's because they need paint

Nordic God

I'm keeping up with your project and will tip my hat to you. The amount of work (and its quality!) you've done and will be doing is to be saluted and certainly is deserving of praise. You mentioned needing to take a break or two. Whenever I need an injection of love for my car (which ain't often) I go to the thread where 7owners post pictures. They inspire me.....usually to pull out my wallet to spend on her. ShineAuto is usually the benefactor...just bought a new diffuser from them and installed it last week before testing it on one of the country roads around my house. Can't say I feel a difference at 150 mph but it sure looks good. Keep up your fantastic work. Looking forward to seeing the "Nordic God" completed.
