Then the fender would have to be cut up bonded with the new fender and painted... but this one turned out very nice...check out the tread about that one too... http://www.eurotuner.com/featuredveh.../photo_03.html | | | 08-22-2008, 01:58 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Ferndale, MD Posts: 462 | You can look for a set of mazda miata flares. They are pretty versatile and you should be able to get them to fit without many mod's to them. They are pretty easy to find. I almost bought a set, but I may be selling my ti shortly , so mod's are the last thing on my mind right now. __________________ No trunk for the Junk | | | 08-22-2008, 10:48 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | Quote: Originally Posted by aznlonewolf135 there are a lot of threads about rolling your fenders...but if you wanted a "wide body" I think you'd have to get it custom made because there are no kits for the TI.

Not a fan of it, and makes the car look a bit to stocky. Quote: Originally Posted by trickiekid You can look for a set of mazda miata flares.

So it might be more work that whats it actually worth. | | | 08-23-2008, 04:45 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | Yea, that's what they say about a lot of things. And turns out a lot of the times that it is not universal. I just don't want to spend money on something and have to return something. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

Fender flares are normally universal, which means fitment for all vehicles with minor to major modifications. There are fender flares that are on the market which are vehicle-specific as well, so check our product descriptions for details. How do you install fender flares? Fender flares can be bolted onto your vehicles fender well area, or molded in to your factory fenders, depending on the look you want. Modification is very slight to major depending on the look you’re trying to achieve. | I don't think its worth it. Isn't there some kind of body kit you can get instead? | | | 08-23-2008, 07:18 AM | #10 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 | I'm not looking to dish out a lot of money. I was gonna go with fender flares and reiger cup. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.
