Does anyone know where I can purchase flares like these? TIA




Besides being able to add fatter tires underneath, I believe these would look awesome on my Impala

this has to be the biggest ****ing joke

there- i said it so nobody else has to now

mexSSican

ooooooooooo-k...please enlighten me as to why you think this "the biggest ****ing joke"

If you are refering about me wanting to add those flares to my car....hold on ((((scrolling up)))) yea, just what I thought....I didnt ask for your opinion

Now does anyone else have anything constructive to add?

Thank you.

Seeing how I like the way the flares look on the Merc, I thought that it would look equally as well on my Imp since, if you look closely, the Imp and the Merc have similar body lines down the side.

If youd like to see more pics of the car above click HERE and then click on "S-Klasse W220" to the right. I just love the look of that car with them fat wheels/tires.

If you look at http://www.mae-autodesign.de/pdf/Editorial.pdf it seems that they offer the flares seperately, which birngs me back to my original question...does anyone know where to purchase these?

you really have to be kidding...whats next? you want to buy some amg body kits so you can put it on your impala as well?

Initially I thought those fenders were a custom job as replacing the body panel with the flares is kind of a lot of metal to swap out.

I wouldn't do it if I were you unless it's a pure show car. Takes a lot away from the classiness of the car.

Try a baseball bat? That's what a few of my friends and their respective LS400's did.

thank you. No offense but I think it just kills the look of the car.

Totally agree..

What car...the Imp or the Merc....dosent really matter since it wont be going on YOUR car anyway, right.

Geez...its only flares What? Does Mercedes have the copyright on fender flares now?

What a warm welcome

mexSSican

Like I said...look at the follwing 2 pics...both cars have similar body lines down the side




I think it looks good on one car Im sure itll look just as good on the other. If you dont like that.....FINE....Im not here to ask for your opinions, just information on where I can buy them. Thank you.

i think chrome fender flares would add some nice style

why not just talk to a body shop? or are they sheetmetal

mexSSican

Ok now if would of suggested chrome fender flares, then yea I do deserve to be

I was hoping they were sheetmetal, that way I wouldnt have to worry about cracks forming where the fiberglass (or whatever) is bonded to the sheetmetal. Besides having a shop do these from scratch is mucho $$$ and may not turn out the way I want/like. This way they have the basic shape and would only have to do minor mods to attach them. I would call the MAE shop, but I dont speak German.

345/18's you have a turbo or s/c?

mexSSican

Its in the works....although its not "a" supercharger or "a" turbo but twins, as in twin-turbo

The reason I am lookin for the flares is because as it is now I am maxed out with the 345s and want/need to upgrade to 355/25/19 tires out back. In order for me to fit them back there I need to either notch the frame or add flares. I didnt want to notch the frame due to safety issues that could arise.

On a side note...do you know of anyone who is a MAE dealer here in the US that perhaps I could call to see if the above flares are available for purchase. Thanks.

mexSSican

It wouldnt let me edit the original...fixed it so that both pics show up.

email MAE and ask them if someone in the US can bring these in for you>>> mae.autodesign@t-online.de

mexSSican

I did that a couple weeks before posting here but never recieved a response Im going to try again.

Hes NOT asking for MAE flares on his Impala, just flares like it, he wants the flare effect. Its totally different to what you are making it out to seem like, get a grip man.
