what fender flares?

[tmaxxdout]

I just bought a 80's Chevy body for my honcho and wad wondering what fender flares would fit the wheel wells. I need something some what flexible because I trimmed the wheel wells up a bit.

you could try using flares from an scx10 dingo, i think they are fairly flexible

Anyone have some dimensions for the fender flares from a scx10 dingo I want a set of flares but I don't wanna buy a set until I can figure out if they will fit

You could try these. There are two shapes available. I think the squared ones would be best for the Chevy. The are from a place in Spain. I have ordered from them and was very happy with the quality. They are a very flexible rubber and can be easily trimmed to fit any length wheel wells.

Here's a crude drawing of the Dingo flares I posted for a fellow a while ago. Crude, but you get the idea. Fronts and backs are the same, just reversed.

Any one running flares on their Chevy bodies it would be nice to see some pics of some flares mounted. thanks for the drawing it helps the flares from Spain look nice but by there specs on the website I think they may be to big for my truck

The are smaller when compared to the Axial flares as far as tire coverage goes. They stick out less over the tires then the Axials do. They are very easy to trim to the size of the wheel opening. They are made out of a similar material as rc tires seem to be. Here is a pic of them on a much smaller tire rig for reference. Nothing like what you are doing, but shows the general size of the flares. they were shortened about an inch overall by trimming the ends with some hobby scissors.







Look at Ukionz rig about halfway down this page. You can see the same body with Axial flares. Hope that helps you with size of the flares. Good luck either way you go

Post your land rover/ range rover pics here!

Thanks for the pic nice rig but it really doesn't help me I'm not really worried about tire coverage I just like the look of flares that's why I would like to see some chevys with flares so I kno what flares to run with I don't wanna spend all that money to have them shipped from spain to find out there not going to work
