Victoria British used to sell the wide rally flares Part #16-525 that are a bolt on fiberglass. You still will have to open up the fender arches on the car if you bring the tires outward.They cost about 139.00 for the set. I dont know if they have them anymore though?

Michael, those do look kind of like mine. I'm not sure if mine are quite as big though. If mine aren't the rally flares, I wonder where they came from originally.

Jim your look more like a cross between the narrow long forest rally flares and the TR8 Huffaker Engineering Flares. Actually yours look more like a Huffaker kit!

No no, no no no.
Can you please stop posting photos of the Group 44 body kit as it's putting me back in my therapy sessions.
Now where was I, oh yes......
"I don't want one, I don't need one" [:(].
"I don't want one, I don't need one" [:)].
"I don't want one, I don't need one" [:D].
Right, I'm OK now [;)].

No, that gorgeous car belongs to Tim Lanocha. And yes, I do wish it was mine.

Guys I will be riding around in Lanocha's Group 44 replica TR8 this coming weekend for the Roadster Factory show. We have about 30+ TR8s coming.
