Duraflex fenders and fender flares are aftermarket accessories designed specifically for track, show, and off-road use. These components are not intended for use on public roads, and Duraflex disclaims any responsibility for any damage, injury, or loss resulting from their use. Since these parts are made of fiberglass, they are not ""direct bolt-on"" and typically require significant preparation. This often includes trimming, cutting, sanding, fitting, or adding additional fiberglass. Installation may require custom bodywork, and issues like warping or fitment challenges can arise if not done carefully.
Duraflex fender flares are crafted to extend the wheel arch, providing a more aggressive stance that often complements the style of a complete body kit. Some fender flares may need to be attached using rivet nuts with a rubber gasket between the flare and the original fender, though these components are not included. For more aggressive flares, cutting and rolling of the original fender may be necessary to create additional wheel clearance and achieve a lower stance. Given the properties of fiberglass, adjustments during installation are common, and it’s important to ensure proper alignment and fitment to avoid gaps or uneven surfaces.
Duraflex fenders offer a sleek, customized aesthetic upgrade. These lightweight fiberglass replacements may require reinforcement around the A-pillar and the fender mounting flange to ensure durability and a secure fit. Trimming and reshaping may be needed to align with the vehicle’s mounting points. Modifications to factory components, such as removing fender liners or adjusting brackets, may also be required to complete the installation.
For optimal results, Duraflex recommends professional installation by a custom shop experienced in handling fiberglass components. Traditional auto repair shops may not have the necessary expertise for trimming, cutting, or modifying fiberglass parts.
As with all Duraflex body kits and accessories, these fenders and fender flares are intended strictly for track, show, or off-road use. Due to Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, most Duraflex fenders and fender flares are not street-legal. Duraflex does not endorse or recommend using these products on public roads or highways.
