It would be a hell of a lot of labor and money. My friend bought some a while back for his civic and they where a "universal" fit. Didn't fit worth ****. Body shop wanted $200 just to reshape them to fit his car and thats not including installation and paint after they were fitted. He ended up throwing them away.

4-5 hundred? so it comes down to like a 7 hundred dollar job at the end, and u wont even know if it will look right when its done. i think accoalde or someone should make a some fender flares for our car, i remember they mde a widebody kit, but it was for show only and was very difficut to handle on the streets

honestly if your fenders aren't wide out of the factory its probably not a good idea to add them, ive seen people with them on and after a year you start to see the paint cracking around the flares.

flares for the back would be cool but i think new one piece fenders that come flared would be the thing to go for if you are going to try and find someone to make them
