Default Fender flares?

Do we have any fender flares for our cars besides the ark solus wide body?

I'm not one for wide body kits but I think this was done tastefully. I hate kits with rivets showing.

True. This is not that bad for a wide body kit. Most of them ruin the look of the car and turn a Lexus into a ricey civic.

Here's another thread where they were identified. It was stated that these are Voltex fender flares, but not made specific for IS, possibly an Evo. There is an article in the thread about the car above.

My plan is to get the rear finders from the Solus kit and the Seibon front fenders which are a bit wider than stock from my understanding.

your setup is looking spicy! did they have to repaint more than just the fenders and quarter panels to match?

I've noticed that the rear fender kinda curves inward. Or is that just mine?
