Hard Motorsport Fender Flares Inquiry

rod.bearings · 01-12-2017, 04:52 PM

Anyone close to Spokane, Washington USA?

Was speaking to Adam @ Hardmotorsport about potentially making flares for the E82. His flare looked very clean on the e90/e36 and thought maybe they could make some for our platform. He replied "If we had a car we could do something". Just trying to build some interests and hoping someone close by could be a test subject!

Update - They need the car for 1-2 months for measurements and to make the molds. No cuts or modifications will be done on the car.

Those Interested in the flares
1)Krazi3azn
2)Rob.K
3)xBlueStreakx
4)Ginger_Extract
5)houtan
6)Jorgensen54
7)LeMansBeauty
8)ShocknAwe

Here's some pictures of the flares.

More pictures of the E90 version. Looks interesting. Did they do the front and rear bumpers too?

It's a 6 piece set, 4 fronts that cover the front bumper and 2 rear. They have loads of pictures on their Instagram and website

We really need this so i hope someone steps up...I would give my car up but Im too far away.

Jorgensen54 · 01-13-2017, 02:54 PM

I'm in Seattle, but I'm not very interested in these compared to ZG.

Also, not really willing to sacrifice my car unless there's something in it for me

xBlueStreakx · 01-13-2017, 03:27 PM

Would love to pick up a set of rear flares for my 1er from them.

I have their E90 wing setup and despite the trunk profile being different, fitment is pretty good. Also started installing their E90 front splitter setup and the brackets fit perfectly; splitter almost perfect...

Oh and their E90 diffuser too...

Ginger_Extract · 01-13-2017, 05:27 PM

Where are they located? Interested in front flares.

Yea I like the ZG flares, but would love to have ones that are designed and fit the E82 perfectly

I've been obsessing over this idea all day.. I really would like to pursue something, but I just think it's too impractical to give a car up for that long.

I could spend a week with expansion foam and bondo and come up with some molds that would be mass-production worthy.

https://www.instagram.com/p/_Jgn7Lry-9/ - these look alright as well, I just think customization or 'massaging' is going to be inevitable.

houtan · 01-22-2017, 06:09 PM

The e46 and e90 flares look great. I'm sure the donor car could work something out with the vendor to get the flares for free or deeply discounted.

Bump

I emailed them. Response was that they would only develop something if the demand was there. People need to email him! I bet you their kit would be badass.

Jorgensen54 · 04-11-2017, 01:54 PM

What's the email address... I'll inquire as I'm one of the closest members, but I'm going to need some real convincing to forfeit my car for that long.
