Fender flares
 
Where can i get some nice fender flares for a DECENT price? I started to work on my 280zx again and i want to do all the bodywork at one time. Any help would be great

I've never seen any for the 280ZX though.

I have often thought that flares on my 280zx would look really nice, and help tuck some larger tires under it while lowered. I haven't come across anything though.

www.jimcookracing.com they made some fender flares for the ZX. Might wanna try them.

I had sent an email to Jim Cook Racing about the flares, but never received an answer. So I have no idea how much they are, or what they look like installed. Has anyone seen a pic of a 280ZX with the JCR flares mounted?

JCR takes forever to reply to e-mails, but they'll do it...eventually. took three weaks for me to get a price check from them!

Yup. It's always better to call during business hours Pacific time.

I've only seen one set of flares on a ZX that looked worth a damn and that was last Sunday at the Z meet in Pleasanton, CA.

Ice brought a friend of his that extended the fenders on his 280ZX by cutting the lip off the edge and installing about 2" of metal and welded the lip back on. It was the cleanest, smoothest flare job I've seen on a ZX. Most ZX flare jobs I've seen look like bolt-on crap.

Here's the only picture I've found so far:

Hehe, I took some close up shots of those flares when I was there this weekend. I'm told the owner did it himself too. @_@

Found a few more pics with better angles and resolution.

What kind of prices did they want?

juggalo280ZX 05-18-2005 07:14 AM

I don't know the price for the flares, but the big bore kit is I believe $1800.

Did anyone get picstures of that orange Datsun 620 next to IcICE's car?
