Should I buy fender flares?

I was looking through a few Japanese car websites, and I kinda like the fender flares for the s30's, but didn't know how it would look on my car. I have the gnose front end, but the car also has a fiberglass body kit which extends the body a little lower.

I found this picture, it has the same front end, but no body kit. Just wondering if you guys like the look. Should I do it?

It's your car... do what you would like to it. They definitely add style to the car, but it takes time to install them right.

it does to install the right is the key word. cutting away at the wells tacking them back together and then installing them.

i personally don't care much for riveted flares. if you flare, you should weld them on and blend them smooth.

I always wondered, how were the zg flares mounted from the factory?
