What's the difference between4.8is flares and Leman Special edition
I just ordered new wheels, tires and running board kit. I was just wondering what the difference is between 4.8 flares and Leman, is there any pics. I think I saw them but can't find it anymore.

I think the Lemans flares are rounded at the bottom in the back and the 4.8is are squared off.

The 4.8is are wider at the bottom more aggressive
look at both side to side

What about this kit? It looks like a few people bought it but I am not sure I have seen any feedback yet. I guess it's a fiber glass version but I am not sure. Would it be similar to the 4.8 or Leman SE?

4.8is style flares. You will need the lower rear bumper spoiler or it will look silly.
