Some FYI for someone that's done this.. lol as bad as this sounds make sure the rear flare wont be lower then the front (from working around the gas cap)

Lastly make sure to change the mounting points of the rear bumper so you can clear the wheels.. and Finally..

I have an extra set of brand new 325/25/20 PS2 tires for sale if the owner of your red g is interested

Just wondering.. whats your name OP?

So figure a bit more on my sedan since they would also have to mold it into the rear door.

I applaud the shop's old school way to making the flares.

i see your point

props on the steel
