Those SRT8 ones are nice and subtle, hopefully someone has made knockoffs!

Found the part numbers;
From this forum. Some good detailed photos there.

... $1,000 anyone? Hmm.

Thanks heaps, I didn't realise they were standard (on all export SRT8s apparently.).

I'll try to dig up some info on them.

Here's a photo for anyone watching.


They look pretty nice IMO.
And would also provide a good platform to make some custom ones.
Saves me from drilling holes or trying to cast a mold on the side of the car .
we thought about tracking these down to put on drj33p's WH given that the pintlers and ST-Maxx's stick out ever so slightly, but we decided it wasnt enough to really worry about....

James if you buy a set for the greater good I'm sure we could find a local glasser who could start doing copies. Now I wonder if the WJ SRT had something similar.

Yeah it's tempting... I think they'd be reasonably popular, especially if they mount solid enough with just trim tape to support a rubber extension.
Although I'd have a hard time getting the budget approved with a wedding coming up .

It's a long-shot but I'll try hitting up wreckers first.
Surely a few SRT8s have been written off over the years .

Just noting that I've found "moparonlineparts.com" listing these for ~US$650.

http://moparonlineparts.com/oemparts...FX53RXFAA.html

I've e-mailed about available... mostly just for a laugh.
Although if I can find them a bit cheaper I might take the punt. Hmm.


PS; @g_ordo or a mod, would you mind changing the title of this topic to "WH Guard flares" or "WK/WH" or something.

I'm back looking into this WH flare issue...
I forgot to update with the comprehensive response I had from "Mopar Online Parts";
