Ratwagon1600 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Yep, based on the above pics I'd be pretty pissed as well. Call me old fashioned, but, if I ordered a 3inch set of flares I'd expect them to be 3 inches wide, not 2.25. 2 Quote Link to comment
Ranman72 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 FUCK REALY how are you supposed to measure flares dugh I need them to cover 3.25 so they are 2.25 of coverage when you asked for 3.5 to cover your ass I AM HATING THIS FLAIR COMPANY AND ITS NOT EVEN MY PROJECT Sorry to hear this bob keep us posted the flair company is definitely full of MISINFORMATION it doesn't look like misinformation will be using the fairy's flairs Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Bob where did those flares come from?? Okay. Today I got two sets of flares! One set from special-carbonfiber.com and a surprise set from JDMflares. I will let the photos speak for themselves. Both are too narrow for my application. Here is a photo of both sets. Here is the set from Special Carbon Fiber; Here is the set from JDMflares; Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 AHAHA! The lady in the cubilce across from me is staring at me because I laughed so hard. That picture is priceless. Bob, I'm sorry the flare hunt hasn't been going well. I hope Dave gets into these soon. If not, I may try my hand at them, but I'm sure Dave would do 10x better. I've only done panels and tonneau covers :P Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 those JDMflares look like crap maybe they were used and returned, just look at those scratches, nicks and chips in them, but the Special Carbon Fiber flares look nice Quote Link to comment
Ranman72 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 pics say JDMFLARES = GARBAGE show us some wheels and tires so we can fap Quote Link to comment
SandyMush620 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Here is the set from JDMflares; This guy truly has no shame. Quote Link to comment
B-1-Juan-oh Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Those are def unused... No holes drilled in them. This is just how the guy sends them out.... No pride. I would be embarrassed those JDMflares look like crap maybe they were used and returned, just look at those scratches, nicks and chips in them, but the Special Carbon Fiber flares look nice Quote Link to comment

SSS510 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 pics say JDMFLARES = GARBAGE show us some wheels and tires so we can fap I agree 100%, this is the kind of shit that can ruin one's enthusiasm on a build :poop: Quote Link to comment

Kirden Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 That'll buff out man. Nothing wrong with those flares... You'll have that 25ft look going on. Now, back to some sort of seriousness. I wonder if he saw the build and thought oh, no paint job and its a race car. I bet I can sell my busted recalls to this guy and top dollar and he won't know better... Please people, take care of your customers. After all, they are the ones paying your bills in the end. Quote Link to comment
wayno Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I can hardly believe anyone would send out something like that. Are the molds shot? Quote Link to comment
Kirden Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I would hope that is the problem. You would have to be pretty horrible with glass/not give a shit for those flares to come out like that using good molds. Quote Link to comment
Farmer Joe Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 damn... those are jacked.. that sucks about the cash spent on em. whadaya gonna do with em? Quote Link to comment

Laecaon Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Not trying to stir up anything... but maybe those flares from JDMflares was solely what he had stated, flares so you could do a mockup... of course they are rejects, I dont think he ever intended to give you a real set of flares to use, just mockup... not trying to state what is right or wrong. Anyways, yay the car runs! Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 even if they arent perfect i would take them i plan on painting whatever flairs i get so a few dings wouldnt phase me any as long as there in one piece but for this build this think need premo flares and ones that are wide enough lol bob as i said on facebook we need smoky doughnut videos!!

Anyways, yay the car runs! What kind of mock up can you do when no two of them are alike? Paypal did issue a refund and JDM did send them for free, but they are useless! They are wavy and when measured from the bottom of the arch to the bottom of the arch they vary over an inch! The other set is nice, just not 3.5" wide as advertised! Quote Link to comment
