I'm still here. Nope, not even close, it's just about ready for paint. I changed the front bumper design 4 times now, still not happy with it.
I'll try to get some pics this weekend. |

The AIR flares have a flange, thats it, no hardware to attach to the body.
I wasnt happy with the fit, I cut off the flanges and made my own. Used these http://www.mcmaster.com/#threaded-rods-and-s ... |

Thanks! I've done all the work on the car so far.

Dutch924-racer Yes, I welded the flares. I cut the outside and inside flares the same distance and added a filler strip to make the flange look like the original GTS.

The rear flares started as AIR flares. I added inner liners and the flare.
