With the Forum 10 year party this weekend it was time to make time to get the Patrol in a presentable condition. Old flares were removed in January already and drove around without any for about 3 months. Thanks to forum I had to make time for fitment.

Old flares on the Patrol with the passenger rear door already missing parts and the right rear was also about to fall of!

After the removal I had to get all the dust and sand out and then cleaned with some car polish before fitment commenced.

The fitment of the two front flares is really easy and doesn't need much skill to get done right. The same goes for the two rear pieces above the rear wheels.
But them the two pieces on the rear door is where some skill, cutting and fitting is needed to get it to fit nicely. Each of those had to be fitted marked, taken off, cut, sanded and refitted. It came out very nicely and I am super happy to have all flares back on the Patrol ready for Forum 10 year birthday. :woo:

Hi Hugh

Nissan Patrol GU4 Fender Flares from Kut Snake is available.



I stock the GU 1,2,3 series as they all take the same set, but the GU4 has a much wider flare.

It is possible though to fit the GU4 set on a GU123 as a “monster” flare kit, in a application where extra wide wheels is used.

I include a picture of the GU4, yours should look like this.

I have done a group buy last year for the Patrol club that was driven by JP Viviers at the time, and I am willing to do so again for those whom is willing to commit.

Usually the cost per full set is R9200 including delivery to you.

When we sell 10 sets or more we can do it for about R8600 per set.

I capp it on R9200 so it shall never be more, although we always forward discount to the customer when the currency is stronger at time of order and we save as a result of that on our side as well.



We have a shipment on the way and the next one being finalized, so please confirm if you want to order a set so that we can ensure we have the set for you on our next shipment, due to arrive end of November (takes about 6 weeks currently as airfreight is not up to speed yet, so we can only get by sea freight.



Kind Regards
