Found some on ebay for about $240. How do they mount their universal. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Universal-Fender-Flares-Body-Kit-4pc-Fender-Flares_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36475QQihZ011QQitemZ320162725695QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW _____________________________ im a stupid n00b, I have no clue about anyhting when it comes to "CARS". yet I will argue with you. because I am a stupid prick.

Nothing says "big homo" like universal fender flares. WB kit FTW, if you need to mod the body at all that is. If it were me (as well as many others), Id leave it stock. _____________________________ Current cars: (What I havent wrecked) 1995 Eagle Talon TSi "Jackie" 2001 Mitsu.

Wide body kits aren't all they're cracked up to be... no pun intended but they do crack, especially if everything is molded. Its a big headache. trust me _____________________________ Dejon tool 3" intake pipe, SBR Tubular exhaust manifold, PTE 50 trim, SBR FMIC w/ 3" piping, GM 3" MAF w/ MAF translator, Tial BOV, Magnus Intake Manifold, 650 injectors, COMP 101200 cams, Cometic Head Gasket, ARP head studs, 3" VRS turbo back exhaust (in reply to Sebba) Post #: 7

How many inches is that? _____________________________ im a stupid n00b, I have no clue about anyhting when it comes to "CARS". yet I will argue with you. because I am a stupid prick.

RE: Fender Flares on a eclipse? - 10/2/2007 4:32:09 AM    oh_what_up Posts: 338 Joined: 7/4/2006 Status: offline Its not a question of mounting. Its a question of molding. If you want to just affix the panels with quick releases, you'll probably be alright, but if you want to mold it and make it look like the car is supposed to look like that... then you're gonna have issues. Look in my gallery... I think you can see where its cracking along the molding.. Remember though. we're not here to talk you out of something. We're just trying to give you our opinions. In the end its your choice _____________________________ Dejon tool 3" intake pipe, SBR Tubular exhaust manifold, PTE 50 trim, SBR FMIC w/ 3" piping, GM 3" MAF w/ MAF translator, Tial BOV, Magnus Intake Manifold, 650 injectors, COMP 101200 cams, Cometic Head Gasket, ARP head studs, 3" VRS turbo back exhaust (in reply to Kaede.Noir) Post #: 10
