I've got to replace the flares on my Sunshine project cars as the aftermarket fiberglass ones are mostly busted.

Does anyone have any tips on flares that will fit the clubman as well as fit over the S metal guard extensions fitted for the original flares? I'll be using 4.5 inch or 5 inch wide wheels once the car is back on the road.

use the replacement which i think is plastic, but identical
i think they're $45 a corner

or you can get the "innocenti" type flares which were also used on the late model rover non sportspack minis, these are plastic screw on type, and are cheap

Yeah I do like the standard clubman flares, but they're not really exciting.....
