Just curious as to why you don't want oem. They seem to be the best bet. Are they not direct bolt on? I'm interested in getting more rubber under my car and have been thinking of this and having metal rear flares made

1M front fenders aren't direct bolt on without at least the front bumper. The bottom of the fenders then won't line up with the side skirts. The 1M parts were designed to work as a whole, front and rear bumpers, fenders, side skirts and quarter panels are all widened to meet up with each other.

Are you planning on making the metal flares yourself? Not an auto body guy myself and have been stalking for ages looking for someone who will do a metal flare to match the 1m rear bumper and skirts.

If he does the flares he would want to make a few sets to sell. He asked me to look into anyone interested. If I can find the proper dimension I can go on this. By the time I get all the rest of the parts together they should be ready |

Treymiller32 Nice find but does the typical widebody kit thing where it doesn't smoothly flare down to cover the tread like factory body styling does.
I'd that's your thing, great.

I've seen a couple people buy those kits on one of the Facebook pages. They didn't end up putting them on because of how bad the quality was. A lot of those aftermarket fiberglass "kits" are like that.
