[DeTomaso] Vedr: GTS Fender Flairs?? Differences

[gudmund frøland]

 I have a 1974 GTS with rivet flares. When using these flares there is no room for any wider wheels than with ordinary flares. I think the best way if you want bigger wheels you need to use steel flares. The fiberglass flares while be too soft if you cut the fender and modify the fiberglass Flare. By the way I bought a Front Fiberglas Flare from Precision Pro-Formance not to long ago and had it shipped to Norway. When try to install it was impossible to use it was about 1" to small but fit werry well in the trash can. Be careful and check where you buy fiberglass parts.
Best regards

Gudmund Froiland

Emne: [DeTomaso] GTS Fender Flairs?? Differences

I have some front driver side damage in my fender rolled area on my '72 L. 
The tire offset has been incorrect since I have had the car and I didn't 
want to change tires and wheels.

Have been looking at putting fender flares on the car for some time.  I 
think the rivet attachment type.
What are the differences in the flares from the different vendors?  Size and 
composition?
How much of the outer fender lip can be removed with each flare set (if 
there is a substantial difference)?

Thanks in advance to the collective,
jerry
