    Please don't!

    It's easier to add horsepower than it is to lose weight.

    Those hide one of the best looking parts of the car!  I am thinking he bought some for something else (that probably had 4x4 in the name) and modified them to fit his Mustang.

    Re: Anyone know where to get these wheel arch chrome

    So, would you rather have a door ding in some noce looking original flares or on some gaudy looking stainless steel flares?

    Kind of like the guys that run a bra on their car all the time to keep it from getting paint chips.  Personally, I would rather look at a few chips.
