hm, im torn here. i really like proper extreme vip styled rides with big flared guards and kits with tough fitment or tuck. But these flares are just too bulbous somehow to me, like they seem too tall and dont taper in. they remind me a bit of old Mk1 Escort rally flares. and then how theyre squared off at the edge its a little much, and it sort of means the wheels are sortof halfway between tucked and flush somehow... i dunno its just not quite right somehow for me. it looks like an overseas interpretation of the jap styled cars i guess, just not quite jap somehow haha
But huge props for all the work and its clearly stunning and to be fair it is probably a lot better executed and cleanly finished than many of the jap cars though they look it in pics, that can hide a lot.

I love seeing builds like this. Although I think it would of looked best if the rear fenders were radiused and the flares went up higher near the body line like the fronts, I still think the car looks great. Hopefully it inspires some more people to go all out with their builds and it can push the scene in the right direction. It is no longer about just getting air, wheels and a kit, you have to add some individuality into the build to get on the Japanese level. Props
