I swear, people who don't know the difference between "fender flares" and "widebody kits" need to be shot.

im going to go out on a limb here and say if they were molded in and painted the body color they might not look bad. please save the flames.

roll the fenders and slap on some wide i forged wheels voila flares look a lot better now.

The black flares make the white car look like it's sitting even higher. The stock salad shooter wheels don't help. Drop it, bling it, and maybe.... naaaaaaah.

I think they should be gold plated. Then they'd be pimpin'.

Hey, stop making fun of my white Camaro! They could at least throw in a can of dollar store white spray paint (or whatever appropriate color is needed) so those things do look so tacked on....oh wait, they are tacked on
