Well I am hunting in Toronto to see if someone know how to do them other than the dealers, hopefully I will find someone than putting my inexperienced hands on it.

BTW that's a very nice ride you got there. What tires are these if I may ask? and how's the comfort/handling level on these?

I live in Toronto as well. I have a great mechanic that I use for my BMW's. I just had a rear fender flare replaced and he did it in 15 mins. My guy was a mechanic at Budds for 13 years and at Mississauga for 2 years. He's awesome...extremely affordable as well as knowledgable. PM me and I can give you he's details. Did you find any extended wheel flares in Toronto? I'm getting some 19" M rims staggered and I'm not sure if I can get away with the basic ones I have, so I maybe in the hunt for some as well.

Thank you sir, message sent.

No, not in Toronto, had to import them from U.S. Only dealers had them and they sell them for the price of an arm and a leg.
