They showed up today. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

The question I have is are they all somewhat wavy on the top? I know the stock flares are more twisted than the ending of "The Crying Game" but I was hoping they wouldn't require a dolly block right out of the gate. It looks like the FedEx guys were a little rough on the rears. I'll have a little extra bodywork involved in the install.

The slight wavy around the edges is normal for the production process used. We should consider ourselves lucky to have repo METAL flares to buy. These go on like butter. I've done a few sets now and love them.

Judging from what I got in last years group buy, that's pretty typical of the AA flares.

They do require "work".

It suprises me that some people play it down and all I can assume is that the quality has varied over the years. Of course, I can't verify that statement.

That said, I would sure buy them again (for the group buy price).

Here is a link to my "flare diary"
