They're awesome! About bloody time something like that was available. $450 delivered is getting up there but they look the goods.

They have done the rear quarter cut at an unusual height though? They would need trimming on the back arch.

Looks like they allow a fair bit of guard trimming to at the back of the front guards for bigger tyres. Very interested in these. Would love to see some in the flesh!

If you want to see them in the flesh find some jeeps :). They just retro fit them to the patrols.

A company up in Darwin do 5" setup, but not that cheap..

That's not a bad price at all.. Compared to genuine flares anyway.. Lol

They look crap! I hate jeep flares on other cars, saw them on a 60 last weekend at Talbotville and thought it looked crap. Get the genuine Nissan wide flares from Japan, now they're cool.

Those flares are fibre glass and gelcoat so any sort of impact they'll disintegrate lol

I don't mind the jeep ones either. If anyone buys a set please wang up some photos of how they sit and look underneath.

Fairlane fibreglass do a kevlar composite guard. Wider with a bigger wheel arch, could fit 37s with a couple of inchs of lift

I don't mind the look of them I'd much rather them then the genuine ones and I hate having them on my gu also.

Yeah not a fan of those. The wider OEM units or the rubber jobbies look better IMHO...
