L5 Fender flares are on...

I got my L5 fenders in, so I had an excuse to mount the 335 GYF1 SC's and the 12" House of Wheels wheels - this is what they look like.

Can't wait for the ACP Heat Extractor Hood... and thinking about maybe getting a Tigershark rear bumper to go with the fenders - will get them all painted at the same time.



For those interested in the "fit & finish" of the flares, they ar ewell made and the pre-drilled holes perfectly lined up.

Looks great

I'm going to be ordering an ACP hood very soon. Looks like they make good quality stuff.

Re: L5 Fender flares are on...

I think I am going to stay QuickSilver for the moment.

The car's name is now CamZilla, so I was thinking of going with green and spiny scales - then I remembered Mallet already did that

Not much of a green fan myself. I think the QS will look good with those ext mods!

Re: L5 Fender flares are on...

Those fenders seem like a good alternative to tubbing to me. I fancy a set of 18 * 12 CCW C14s at some point. I was thinking minitub, but those fenders seem a better option.

Re: L5 Fender flares are on...

Are those L5 flares made by ACP? I ask, because on their website, the flares pictured are different. They continue the line of the flare further down the trailing edge to more cover the tire, and act as a mudguard for the rear fender area.
