Rear Fender Flares to match Front?

[swoop1156]

This (snip of a) picture is on @SteedaTech @tj@steeda Steeda's website and is simply listed as "Custom Rear Wheel Fender Flares". I know the fronts we get on the HP, and I'd like to have some in the rear as well. I doubt the front fit the rear, but could it be? I don't have a spare set but I suppose I could measure the opening and check it out.

Apologies if this had been discussed before, I searched for a good while before creating the thread.

Could be a good fix to the Cup rock slinger problem

Interesting.... I would be tempted to do that and paint them to match. Keep the plump super subtle.

Omg I would jump all over this, I absolutely love the front ones it looks so good. Missing the rears for sure.

Here ya go, found this; maybe post in this thread to revive it, but consensus was that the front M1 flares could be retrofitted to the rear.

In the world of Google, I consider myself a Google-foo master. How I couldn't find this... thanks for the link! Looks like I might just order a set of fronts and try it out and see what happens. I think I could likely return them if it wasn't too gnarly. I'll call my parts guy and see wassup! Thanks!

In for the results. I am not a fan of the gap difference front to rear and maybe the flares would make it less dramatic

Alrighty then. I placed the order with Levittown Parts and assuming they'll be here by the end of the week. I'm not one to drill holes or anything so if it's not too wild and my 3M tape will stick and they don't look trashy - then we should know soon. I'll keep this thread updated.

so much pressure on you @swoop1156

Haha not at all! It's something I want to do and if it works, it works! If not, I return them and eat the shipping and whatever - I'll eat a hot dog for one day instead of a steak to break even!

Swoop1156,
Those are the same as the front. Ordered from Ford. I had them cut to fit the rear.
Installed mid-summer of last year. They work out great and look factory to me.

Great to know! I ordered a set. Any chance you have info on how much you cut or what else the install took to accomplish? I'm looking forward to hopefully getting them in and on!

do you have a closer picture? Almost miss them if not looking. Something that shows the install a bit.

Anyone getting a better price on the molding or just getting the 50% off on shipping ?

I don't even know of the 50% off shipping. What site? Through who?
