@jwoo has done it to a 2013 FoST. If he's online, he may have some good info.

To each their own, but I'd be damned if I cut up a perfectly good looking new* car, to install a set of gaudy looking fender flares.
I used to really like the whole "rocket bunny" type stuff, but it's been so overplayed now, that I hate it. Just my 2cents

appreciate you input, as you said to each there own. I'm still on the fence about it, I ordered the Maxton design flares during there black Friday sale since they were a good deal. and can always sell them If I decide not to go through with it.

I was of the same opinion as @Speedy12139 until I saw the FoST that @jwoo worked on. Not saying I would do that to my car, but I have to admit it looks bada$$! Trying to find pics...

The car that made me love them was this one I came across randomly. His IG is FreethinkerST.

The SS Tuning flares look SEEEEXXXXYYYY as F*ck. would be the only version of flares I would want on an ST. cause I'm 90% sure they DON'T involve any cutting. Anything else really looks like a cheap flebay special.

I'm friends with both the owner of that FoST and the guy who did the flares. @jwoo is a member here and did the work. If you can't reach him here, shoot me a PM and I'll get you in touch with him.

I do like the widebody look, but not the bolt on flares. Is there aftermarket front fenders out there for widebody setups, along with lower rear quarters or is the bolt ons the only option for wide setups?

Rolling fenders just rolls the small lip inside the fender. Mainly for clearance so your aggressive tyre/wheel setups don't rub and get cut up. Doesn't actually make the arches any wider.
