Wide fender flares for 2015 model Mustang

We would like to introduce you these cool fender flares by DefenderWorx for a late model Mustang. Wider wheels are definitely trending in modern sport car styling, just look at the RTR and other performance orientated projects, so if you are looking to get that sporty look for your Mustang these Fender flares will do the job. They will cover wider wheels with a good offset and make them look at home in the wheel arches. When the wheels stick out to much they may hurt your fenders on the speed bumps.

+ You would have to do a lot more cleaning without fender flares.

You can keep them black or color match.

What do you guys think about the Mustang with the fender flares: sexy or not so much?

Not my thing that's for sure, I'm sure some people would like them though.

@ ChadStang

Agreed, fender flares are not everybody's personal style preference.

How do you like them color matched?

They might be good on the 05-09 S197 Series if they were available.

Painted might look better.

Not sure why you'd need flares on a Mustang.

Think it comes down to a matter of individual choice. Some owners have marred or damaged wheel fenders/openings. This might be a cheaper route that painting a whole rear section.

Even painted I'm not a fan of them. To me flares have their place on a pickup truck, not a car. That being said some people like them as it gives them a sort of widebody appearance I guess, and if you've got mega offset on your wheels you don't really have many other options.

Flares make sense on a truck. On a Mustang, no thanks. Not a fan of those wide-body cars either.

Love the car, not feeling the love for the flares. Looks better without, but like everyone else has said, its a matter of personal taste. Some guys think neon lighting under the body looks cool too. lol

Not my thing. But if it wasn't for the aftermarket suppliers we wouldn't have half the stuff we do on our cars.
