yeah, but they look cool!

Not sure.. couldn't have been recently as the car has been back east for over a year now. Possibly two years ago? They may have been used for the 2WD conversion work but I'm not sure... Body conversion was by Kundensport though the owner supplied most of the parts..

One nice detail, factory motorsport wheels.. centerlock!

Stainless buttonhead w/nylock stainless fastener on the backside should do the trick

Got the flares and the bolts yesterday a BIG Thnak You to KevinP73 for the bolts.

I had to send one of the flares back because it had a problem in the corner, so Better Bodies will fix it or replace and send back.

Anyone have any tips or pics for installing?

Kevin is the man and coincidently sourced the bolts and did the 934 conversion on my car...
