finalised the PU foaming and rough shaping of my flares. Took me around 10h to achieve what you see. Before laying the glasslayer on it ( as a base for further fine shaping) i would like to get your opinion on the design. As mentione i try to have a reminiscenc to the original gulf design, but with closer fit to the tires and more smooth blending in the orginal clip lines. Another target was to keep the ellipsoid shape of the narrow body wheel well, which in my opinion accounts a lot for the correct stance look.
I love this look like on RON´s car.

This is the current result. The car is sitting at "track" height ( 4 3/4 " in the rear and 4" in the front)
