Looks like I'll need to save up a tad longer...

Heres the quote I received:


Tuckin99 orginal flare kit $1250 gst incl

Tuckin99 N2 flare $1350 gst incl

15 days for them to make it and 2 weeks to land

What about those, just mod them a bit so they work without the rest of the bodykit?

They don't look very "flare-y", and it looks like you won't actually have any additional tyre clearance compared to stock...

No, but I can't imagine anyone cutting their rear guards when using the Japanese ones either, or finding wheels that will fill them

Mine are cut. Plenty of Roadster drifters do it over there in Japan.
