We don’t think the Clinched flares company needs much of an introduction, especially if your into modifying your pride and joy, we would think you would of come across a car of some description with a set of their flares bolted on, and there are a few that have really caught the eye.

We have followed their work for a while, admiring some of the builds their flares have ended up, for such a simple modification they make cars look good, and with a wider wheel and tyre set up gives a stock cars a more muscular look and stance, and that’s a good thing in our eyes as we just love to modify, we just don’t do standard.

The last couple of years they have added wide body conversions into the mix, with the Mitsubishi Evolution, BMW E82, E92, Lexus IS250, to name a few with the most recent and for us the best addition for the all new Ford Mustang, which is an absolutely stunner and definitely the best looking wide body kit on the market for the new model Mustang.

The Mustang kit is a real wide look and really does convert to the radical, with its front and rear over fender that bolt onto the original set up with, with bumper corners, side sills, front splitter and ducktail finishing off the aggressive look, with 11.5” front wheels and a gigantic 13.5” rear wheels fitted with 315 & 345 tyres front and rear respectively.

Clinched Flares Wide Body Mustang

All of their products are manufactured from ABS plastic, so the quality is spot on, for the Mustang conversion for those that want it you can request carbon fibre.

With the Universal flares they have 6 different designs all with various widths, from 3 cm right the way up to 15 cm, so they have a flare for every vehicle, in every size, with also the choice to mix and match.

As well as selling and promoting the Clinched brand across our own network, it’s a reciprocal business deal that means the Clinched crew will be selling and promoting the VAD wide body aero programmes across the Russian market, so we are very much looking forward working with them and watching our combined network blossom.

We first came across ACR Performance back in January 2017 when we visited the Tokyo Auto Salon, and to say we were impressed was a bit of an understatement, the Vantage coupe and the Cabriolet in the flesh were absolutely beautiful, in fact we were mesmerised, it took us a little while to notice they also had a full on Vantage GT3 race car on the same stand, I think everyone that knows anything about us, knows how we feel about GT3 race cars and their look, after all we are building our own BMW Z4 GT3 V8 and our good friend Iby over at Speedwells Wheel Refinishing building the Porsche GT3R variant, so to not even notice a GT3 Vantage underlines just how amazing these Astons were up close and personal.

The conversion is a full wide body and consists of the usual parts required to turn a standard Aston Vantage to look a lot more aggressive.

The full aero kit consists of the following carbon fibre parts, Front bumper, front under tray, front splitter, front (70mm) wider fenders, side strakes, side skirts with air intakes, rear (90mm) wider quarter panels, rear bumper, rear diffuser assembly, rear ducktail spoiler, carbon rear light lenses.

The two cars on display and that have done the rounds are wearing Vossen wheels, the Monoblock directional design does absolutely nothing for us at all on the coupe, but the Cabriolet with the Black mesh is a beauty, the wheels really suit the build out of the 2 designs this was our personal choice, but as a custom forged wheel company our minds got to thinking of the wheels you could build for this conversion, the designs, styles and finishes are endless, ACR Astons wear 11x20 front with 12.5x20 rear, with wider options also available depending on the required tyres you are looking to fit, the options for wheel size, widths, tyre sizes are huge.

We also offer other options for this conversion, hybrid exhaust systems for the V8 and the V12 chassis, as well as suspension upgrades and super charger systems also available on request.

There is no disputing the Aston Vantage is one of the best looking cars to be created, it really is a beautiful look car in standard trim, but ACR have proved that if you have the funds along with the huge balls to mess around with the AMV8, you can improve those gorgeous looks even further, something we didn't think was possible.

2017 has been a fantastic year for us at VAD with our aero kit and wheels being delivered all over the globe, and 2018 is looking rather hectic, with our own BMW Z4 GT3 V8 to be finished, our collaboration of the very first Porsche 997 GT3R Bi-Turbo build with Iby at Speedwells, and our collaboration with the boys over at Reflex Auto Design with Europe’s first ever Old & New slant nose conversion for the 997, along with a couple of our Nissan GTR carbon wide body conversions heading to the states.

Unfortunately, we cannot manufacture every aero kit, it’s just not feasible to do everything and plus we really enjoy working with other quality manufactures from around the world, and our network of friends has expanded at a vast rate over the last few years.

Wide Body BMW E46 M3 GTR V10

2M Autowerks is a company we have known about for some time and we will be working closer with them in 2018, we already display their awesome wide body F80 aero pack on our website, and it’s a conversion we are really looking forward to building next year. Another build the 2M boys are working on that has really caught our attention is their BMW E46 M3 V10, and as mind blowing as that sounds, it doesn't end there either. They have built a full replica GTR wide body aero kit, so it will look as good as it sounds, with plenty of go, all being done in-house, and from what we have seen so far, this is one amazing build, we will report more as and when we get updated.

It well worth following the guys on Instagram & Facebook for updates on their builds, they are an incredibly talented bunch with amazing skill set and such a pleasure for us to collaborate with, whilst promoting their products for the European market.
