Those rear tires are pretty wide... I wonder how much power this car makes.

i think they look good and different. but i also like widebody. that grey one is sick and the black one just looks pissed off. i agree that it would be better without the rivets though.

in the very first picture i love the profile. the flares would be perfect if they were blended in.

Look a lot better if molded and done properly in my book. To each their own tho!

Ruins the clean lines of the SC. Anyone can screw on some universal fender flares. If they were actually made for the car and molded it would look much better.

I've seen the grey sc300 a few weeks ago and it made me want to keep my sc... but now that I saw that black sc300 I'm def going this route. I've read that some people mod s13 fender flares to fit the sc but not 100% sure.. I'll find out sooner or later.

yea i agree they need to be moulded , these are really cool for that kind of beat up , zip tie , drift look that some guys go for, that greenish car does look sick though.

Does anyone know where to get these and how much they cost?

I linked the pictures to the photographer's flickr so you can see full-res shots and such



If they were molded in, I would totally dig them. I like the profile, and the wide wheels and tires are sweet!

I saw this sc in person this morning. The fender flares look a lot better in person compared to the pictures. The hood looks like it is just a stock hood with cutouts. I don't really care for it, but it is definitely unique.

I didn't meet the owner, but I have seen this car on the forums before. I just can't think of the username.
