If you can avoid it, DO NOT get your arches flared. I had my rear ones flared and it looked awful. I put up with it for 3 years and hated them. I have only just had new rear arches welded in and even in there current state (not blended in properly or sprayed) they look 100% better than the flared ones.

is flairing when they cut a bit out? or pull the arch out and mishape it?

whats it called when they reprofile the front ones like i know breeny had done on his bluen for his 18s ?

IMO that purple novas arches are nasty. Im not a big fan of small wheels either. Nice colour though

Mike, flaring is where they take about 2" of the arch and pull it out, creating a flare. That lilac Nova above is a good example of flared arches. As far as I know, Breenys blue Nova had the front arches trimmed in order to make way for his 18's. They wern't flared.

Flared arches always looked botched
