flares

[muffinstar16]

Anyone have any tips on adding fender flares while also keeping my bumper quick release? all the bolts that held my bumper on snapped, and changing my oil at home requires my floor jack to clear under the car. Overall the bumper quick release has made it much easier to work with the car. I've been wanting to add fender flares, but am not sure if its possible. any tips?

I'd say the best way would be to use riv nuts and bolts to hold the flares on so that they are easily removed from the car. Or you could cut the flares at the seam line for the bumper and attach it to the bumper and the fender.

Another idea instead of a quick release bumper is to get Race Ramps. They are super lightweight car ramps that will elevate your car about 3 inches and then you can get just about any jack under the car with no problem. I invested in a set of these years ago and I've never looked back.

Or cut the flares so that there is a seam at the bumper line. Essentially making the flares 2-piece. I know I thought about doing that when I was seriously looking at flares.

Drive the car up on a couple 2x10 stacked. Get you 3" more ground clearance then you can get a jack under.
