Flares for a B210 2dr Sedan

[SlammedSunny]

Hey guys, Ive been trying to decide what flares to put on my 76 B210 2dr sedan, originally i was going to put ZG flares on it, but I really like the looks of the CDM 1200 flares.  Has anybody tried fitting the CDM flares on a B210 before? Or does anybody have other ideas (with pictures) for flares on a B210? I would like to stay with bolt on VS molded or metal flares, only because I prefer the looks of bolt on flares. Thanks!

I would assume that I would need to modify any flare I choose due to the body lines

you dont see many flares on B210s, i think CDMs would look really good on the car though.

Ive got ta22 flares and datsun 1200 flares which I can get photos of on my 4 door B210 if you like, the ta22 flares are a good fit as is and dont need much work (on the 4 door covers the rear door a little but would be fine on a 2 door) but imo are too wide for the car and look out of place, the 1200 flares need to be cut in the centre and widened to fit the arches which is what Im going to do as they are only 1.5-2" wide opposed to 2.5-3" like the ta22 flares.

 

EDIT-

These are the ta22 flares

 

 

 

Dont have any pics of them on the rear, or any with the 1200 flares but can get some if you like.

I quite like those actually. May need to get some of those flares myself.

those do look like they fit well.  having a 4 door myself, im curious to see what you do with the rear doors

[datsunfreak]

I test fit 240ZG flares from MSA on my B210 and they fit quite well everywhere but the side body line at the rear of the front fender opening. May just need to cut it off there.

 

The CDM 1200 flares are probably way too short front to back for a B210?

[SlammedSunny]

I have test fitted ZG flares on my B210, and the fronts fit well on the front and rear, the rears are way too big. But I love the looks of the CDM flares much more than ZG flares, and I like to be different

[SlammedSunny]

Maybe I will have to contact CDM and ask for specs, unless someone here has some specs from the CDM 1200 flares?

Well, that's what is on my 1200, so just let me know what measurements you need.  :thumbup:

Why not just buy 4 fronts?

Yeah the fronts fit really well, rears go over the rear door being a 4 door, and imo are too wide so look weird,  thats why im going with the 1200 flares, they do need to be cut and widened to fit. Ill be working on the cars tomorrow so will tape them on and get photos of each type of flares.

I wanted to stray away from the ZG flares, well just because I'm weird like that.  The CDM flares just look more period correct for the smaller cars, although are probably too small to fit the B210 wheel wells.  I might have to go with the ZG flares after all since I don't feel like cutting and lengthening 1200 flares

The fronts definitely are too short. The rears could work, but the fronts would need to be lengthened 3-4".
