Club Car Project #2

I had to put flares on my Precedent after 1st weekend of hunting. Not especially attractive on the Precedent.

I had flare's on my other cart and they lasted 2 weeks. Very brittle. They cracked after I bumped into them. Poof there goes $110. Are you aware of a Strong Flare on the market?

I would have to agree on the flares. Just added mine and the mud getting on the side of the cart or on us was significantly less now......

Thanks for the info! I will be looking into it.

I did cover the seats myself. Picked up 3 yards of black vinyl at Hobby Lobby for under $15. Pretty easy, just peel the old cover's off and use them as a template, stretch and staple the new vinyl to the plywood backing.

I have the new Alltrax SPM 600 amp controller purchased through Cart's Unlimited. The motor is currently stock. I might add a D&D in the future. I will post more pictures of under the seat in a few day's.. Out of town on business until Friday..

Mine seem to be pretty tough. Though I am sure if I hit something immovable, like a tree, right on the flare, I am sure they'd get cracked as well. I suppose it's a trade off. Mud all over every time it is wet ( pretty much all season last year) or occasionally having to replace flares.

Where did you purchase? I know there is cheap chinese crap out there, which is what I probably had.
