wondering if any company makes fender flares for our cars?

I have a dumb question, What are fender flares?

Haven't seen any, but do you think they would look right on an RX??

Not a dumb question at all. Fender flares are body parts which attach to the round part of your fenders and quarter panels and protrude outward past the tires to give it a flared look, hence the name.

Personally, on some cars, a mild flare looks okay with wide tires, but on an RX, I'm just not so sure. Guess I would have to see some pics to be persuaded..

Thanks, I too would like to see pics but from what is discribed don't think they would be right on a RX.

Usually japanese shops would be the manufacturer of these specialty parts but I haven't seen any. I know they make it for the 1st. gen RX but have yet to see any for the 2nd. gen.

I'm still searching so I'll post what I find.

I noticed that on that site they really do not offer any fender flares for the RX. They offer various body kits (side skirts, front and rear bumper lips, etc). Looks aggressive but really requires the car to be lowered on coils to be of any visual benefit.

Exactly. These are 'universal' kits anyway, which to me means they wouldn't work..

Right. Those are universal flares which would be way too much work to fit properly.

I'm sure I'll find one eventually.
