How will that go with the exposed paint work of the wheel arch, ie: scratches.
The risk of scratching the flares would be exactly the same if you open the rear door and slam it against something, therefore damaging the paint work. Only in this case, you will at least have the flares to protect your doors.

Also does the Genuine flares require drilling, and can the standard mudflaps be attached with either set of flares.
I'm not 100% sure about the way the genuine nissan ones are fitted but I would say they're a stick on type, so no drilling will be required.
Genuine nissan ones can not be fitted with the mudflaps, so you will need to remove them. The aftermarket kit can be fitted with the mudflaps with no problems.

Re: *NEW* Fender Flares Kit
I have hit another problem with the fender flare kit I was going to get. Damn shipping fees again but this time it is way astronomical for me to take the plunge and go a head. They're out of the equation for sure.
EDIT: Tague, yep I've seen those before and they cost around $460/set (excluding shipping from Japan)

Re: *NEW* Fender Flares Kit
I think there is an ADR regulation on how far the fender flares can stick-out from the body of the car and these ones seem to exceed them.

Well guys, it seems the accessories on my wish list are shrinking as I have just scored this awesome fender flares kit from the UK for half the price I was originally quoted. Thanks to eBay LOL
Here it is
Can't wait to get it, paint it and fit it on my black beast

Re: *NEW* Fender Flares Kit
I received the fender flares today.
Will be taking them for colour coding and fitment shortly and will post pics when done.
The kit looks awesome and very professionally done.
