I finally got sick of the limited flares and decided it was time to remove them. The two panels on the driverside flapping in the wind when ever I got on the freeway was the final straw. Anyways, removing these is not for the faint of heart. There were pieces of plastic clips flying everywhere during the removal. I ended up doing what a lot of people over on ih8 did with their 80 series and bedlined the panels.
All in all, I'm pretty happy with the way it came out. Now I just need to trim the front bumper up to match the new lines and I am starting from scratch on a new rear bumper next week.
