It's rare enough to come up with pic's of a 2 door second gen. let alone one with fender flares. Try using some photoshop like program to give you an idea of what it will look like.

Im just curious how the bottom of the rear flare would connect. THis would be different then a 4 door where the flare is cut out around the rear door.

So the front would be like a Runner and the rear like a pick up? Do they even sell flares for your Runner? Like I said, Photoshopping would probably give you the best idea of what it will look like next to having a pic of the actual thing. How about more pics of your 2 door second gen?

maybe the flares you would get would be for the 91 pickup. The front ends are the same I believe and I guess so would be the rear wheel well area.

I know what you are talking about. I went through the same thing. They only have one style and it has the notch to fit the rear doors so it looks pretty bad. What I did was build up that area with a plastic filler from a bodyshop, then I sanded it smooth. I'll get you some pictures tonite.

INteresting, my Bushwackers were notched for the rock guards. Wish they weren't actually, it looks cleaner with the straight lines.

Talk about back from the dead!

Yeah, holy ancient thread huh? Anyway, I just got aaaanooother 2Dr and was looking to see if there are any other options fender flare wise. Looks like there isn't, but Kernels idea looks good.

Anyway, guess I'll add a couple of my first 2Dr. These are the only ones I have right now, looking dusty after sitting for two years while I was abroad.

Old thread, so what. That's an amazingly clean 2DR.

Off subject, but do you still own that '99 Patrol? Def would like to see some pics of that if you do.

Thanks! I'll have to put pictures of it once its washed when I get back in a week. I bought it off a girl that was a park ranger, so she rarely used it. Gonna get rid of the body lift though, now that I don't live in Rochester with the 10 feet of snow its overkill.

I'm still in Europe right now, so yeah, I still have the Patrol. I'll snap a couple pics.

Any new Patrols over there? the one they have here in Belize is HUGE. Big motor (small compared to the new 4.5L TT in the LC).

Nice! I've never been a big Nissan fan, but I've always been fond of the Patrols.

While I'm thinking about it, care to share any photos of your newest 2dr 2nd gen purchase?
