Question Flare question...

Has anyone here added turbo flares to the rear only on a Carrera?, if so, how did it look ?, I'm thinking of doing the rears only and in my mind it would look proportioned (I also have a turbo tail). Also, will my side skirts still fit or will I have to leave them off?.
Thanks,
Sam.

I've seen it done for a straight-line drag car, and I didn't much care for the look -- it was too much like a tractor, to my eyes.

So I guess I would need front flares and bumper extensions also ?, what about the sill skirts ?. I knew this was going to happen, at first I promised myself that I would be happy with what I have performance and looks wise, how am i going to pull this off without the CFO finding out ??, direct deposit is a real PIA !!... Ohh cr@p!, just thought about tires and rims to go with it, I'm in trouble, anyone have a spare couch and garage I can inhabit ?.....

Well, you start collecting parts as you find them spreading the cost over several months. Then you either do the work yourself or barter.

You'll need 930 rockers, front flares and an air dam/spoiler to match up with the new front flares. Extensions are only for the rear.

>>Flare question

Yes, you'll need to wear at least 15 pieces of flare to continue working here at Chachky's.

Daaaarling, come look in my closet, I assure you I have flare, my Porsche, on the other hand, seems to be lacking in flamboyant taste...
