What Flares do you think look/function the best on a Camaro?
 
7 Attachment(s)
Would like to get some feedback regarding which flares you think look the best for a first generation Camaro, or if you have experience with them, which ones seem to work the best??

I've attached a few pictures of random Camaro's with Flares for you to comment about, or if you have any pictures of some that are done correctly, both for function and form to compliment the classic shape of the first generation Camaro.

I am particularly interested in Street/Track/Auto Cross/Road Racing etc. so also utility is important. If the flares are used with splitters, scoops, etc. that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

there are a few cars on here where the whole panel bulges out seamlessly looks great and must be way better for aero

I'll dig around and see if i can find them

Didn't Ironworks already build your flares ? I like the dark blue road racing camaro above, but the way the flares tuck tight into the body reveals too much tire and creates a 4*4 look. I think the best design is something that looks like that but doesn't tuck in so much, then of course you need to tie the airdam and rocker into it a little bit.

The wide body rear on a 69 camaro looks awesome when done right, but you got to be careful on the fronts...

I very much like Bob Owens' 69 (the sliver center striped 69) and "Taz" (the gulf colored Racehome/Dyno West 67 or 68).

I can tell you the flares on Bob Owens' 69 are L88 Corvette flares and were installed by a local shop close to me. I know because I called them to chat about it 2 weeks ago. Quoted me $5k to install and that did not include paint. They said the L88 flares are about $1k themselves.

Tyler's 50/50 Camaro at Ironworks is another one that looks to be of very high quality and good form.

+1

Personal opinion is 67/68's bodies accept flaring the best. For 69's I prefer Ironworks approach with their Radical 69:

Blu Balz looks great. Just a little tweak makes a nice difference if done right. Most screw up why we like the looks of the first gen camaros in the first place, IMO.
