Flares

Fitting decent sized wheels and tyres means modifying the stock guards. I had seen a few AE86's with hand flared guards which came out looking pretty good, so I decided to give it a go myself and hopefully I could enough clearance to fit the wheels and tyres I had. I started with the front guards as these were the easiest to do and if I stuffed it up all I had to do was source a new guard or buy aftermarket frp guards already flared. I purchased a cheap dodgy hammer and dolly set from Auobarn and set about pounding out the flare. I was suprised with how well they came out! I havent even used any filler on them yet.
