Nearing the Finish Installing Aesthetic Fender Flairs

First off I DO NOT SUGGEST anyone buy the Aesthetic Fender Flairs UNLESS you realize that they DO NOT FIT nor ATTACH PROPERLY based on how they are shipped to your residence. I received them and was totally disappointed in their Structure!

That being said, I decided that with some serious work they could be modified to Fit and Attach. We had to initially place them on the Mini to see where the "Gaps and Terrible Tabs" were Out Of Place...they all were. We changed up the whole Aesthetic Fender Flairs to become the Practical Fitting Fender Flairs. We are not completely done but we are on the last few steps to finalize the change,,,To Flair the Fender Wells and Fit Much Wider Tries and Rims! We will probably be done by the end of this week!!!

Passenger Side Front Fender Flairs is finally fit and is tight...still building a strip of aluminum to cover the area from the wheel well plastic cover to the inside edge of the fender flairs...almost there. The Flairs have been sculptured properly...had a side light installed near the bottom edge...been painted to match the other "black pieces"...I might end up Wrapping with Carbon Fiber Vinyl depending on the look...
