Anybody else that would like these, speak up, and maybe we can get 'em made if there are enough of us!
I believe these are the flares ( with exposed fastener spots ) that he is speaking of. Correct me if I'm wrong?

So talking about body kits for fashion is all fine and beautiful, but I want an aero kit that will increase my fuel mileage. Rear wheel skirts, aero front bumper/air dam, ect. I could fab up skirts out of sheet metal and install them with nuts and bolts, but I think Fiberglass would be the way to go, and all the glass guys I know are from Milwaukee (my home town). Anyone ever look into Aero for fuel mileage?
Remember: No matter how bad life gets, there's always beer.
Current vehicles:
1998 Ducati 900 Monster
1984 Honda Odyssey FL250 (not a minivan)
1986 Mazda RX7
And coming soon, a festiva (Project name: Plaidstiva)

I would recomend starting small and going from there - I would love to have some window rain guards made for our cars but they are a pain to get ahold of - twice now I've had a lead on them that has fell through.
I lived in Nashville for two years back in 03 and 04 - On Douglas Ave just a few blocks away from NADC
