NEW PRODUCT— These fender flares are designed to be installed using exposed rivets or screws which eliminates the need for body work or to blend paint. They look great (check out BMP’s E30) and are really easy to install and inexpensive. They also fit the E21 ('77-'83 320i). Done carefully repainting is not necessary. The original fender lips are normally cut away to allow larger wheels/tires. After all that’s the whole point of fender flares. Flares are shipped larger (longer) than required so customer has some latitude for placement. Ends must be trimmed to match your body. If you still have the side molding, rear molding should be trimed to match up to flare. These flares are not fiber glass. They are ABS thermoplastic. This makes them easier to work with, more flexible, and less prone to cracking. No special prep is required for painting. These are sold and priced as a set of 4. Individual replacements are also available.
