i spose you are right. if you end up dumping it in the weeds then it might be a problem but if not then no problem.

its a carbon top layer so still has the impact resistance of fibre glass which is a bit better then cf.

Did you take any photos while fitting the flares? How much of the guard did you have to cut out, did you have to do anything about a gap between inner and outer guards etc?

no pics of the cutting. on the front you just cut the outer guards and a bit of the plastic inners. on the rear you have to cut both inner and outer metal guards. you basically leave trace down about 1.5 inches from the outside of the flares and cut around that.

So you didnt have to join the metal outer and inner guards?

not yet. I am going to work on a sollution for that one. being as the car will be off the road for the next 5 months it should give me some time.

looking good

i was tossing up the idea of flares, but i dont really like the look on the nb's for some reason. i prefer the massive camber look, each to their own though.
