Cheers Andy. Trying to visualize it, and I think you're right. But SS rivets and silastic is a great idea.
and washers on the rivets too mate, it works a treat!
No open exposure to rust, no screw ends under the flaps. I always need to get my hands under there when cleaning mud and its a nice clean smooth finish.
Cheers for that. I like them a lot. What size flares are those? Do they hold their shape?
Bush ranger 65mm flexi flares.
I like them a lot mate, hold the shape perfect but only because of the wire insert. Without the insert they would be very floppy but you can shape it easily with the wire.
I'm in the same predicament, too. lol. A bit more work than split rims, but well worth it.
I bought a roll of ORE, 'Flexi Flares Pack' in 65mm width. It came in a 3 metre length, fixing screws and spring steel wire inserts. I just need the time to work it out and fit them.
Thanks for the advice about how to fit them.
