Flares

Post by GU42PATROL »

Hi Mate,

I enquired about a kit for my 06 DX and at $3800 for the flares plus painting plus sealing rubbers, I thought It might be wise too seek alternative suppliers......

Ring a wrecker, I was quoted $700 for a set of 4 flares and than was quoted about $500 for painting the lot So I reckon you will get away with 1 2nd hand flare including painting for under $300....??????

Hope this helps

Thanks guys got a quote to fix and it came to $1800 i rang the insurance and i dont think they will cover it cause they dont think the flare is standared and i didnt mention it on my policy so i'll see what happens they will ring back on monday, so if you have flares make sure its on your policy

cheers paul

Just quote your VIN number to Nissna, they can print out a sheet to prove your car had flares from the factory or if it was options at build date!

Are the flares actually broken or just the thin plastic tabs on the back?
