Market feeler: flared front fenders
#76
They general shape is nice IMO (although I still prefer larger, bowed out fenders vs flares that just extend the wheel well, as I posted above). While the shape is nice, what's with the vents at the back of the rear wheels? And you could attach all 4 flares on a 993 GT2 wither the screws from just one of these flares. Way too busy...

Just to let you guys know, the fender project was dropped as I was able to fit 18x10x13 wheels with 275/335 tires without having to resort to hacking up the car. Thanks for all those that emailed with interest. If anyone is interested in flares, contact RUF as they make them. They are for a 996 GT3 so the front is a direct bolt on while the rear would need some modding as it's designed for a narrow body 6. They only sell it as a set at 4K Euro. Not cheap but quality is typical RUF which is to say fit is OEM. As with any functional flares, fenders still obviously need to be cut and templates are provided.

That seems to be the right spot with the 275/335s I ran some RAs that size I had laying around with stickers on them. Best the car has felt on the track. I probably got away with it because I get my camber from the Tarret plates on top. But I agree if you can run those sizes with stock panels no need to change them. It would be cool though to see what your car would run with a 30/65 31/71 Michelin slick combo

Found these on rennlist. This is EXACTLY what I'd want on my car with the flares, and also the fender louvers. Going to call them today to get details.

Link for what exactly? The Thread on Rennlist?

Place that made the louvers is called Vision Motorsports. I didn't get any info on the fender flares as the owner said he sold his composite business. He said he has a few sets of the louvers left over in his office. Price is 750.00 for the pair.
