Fender flares on a 4-door?

We just started doing the front this weekend, and did take some pics, they're still on the camera I guess. I'll post them up once the guy who took them sends them to me.

I'm using some really old and crappy 70's celica plastic fender flares. All there is to it is finding the right position, clamping it to the fender, and drill+poprivet it to the body. Since mine are so old and damaged I'll be repairing/reinforcing them with fibreglass once they are on the car. I couldnt do this before since that would have made them very stiff, and they need to bend a little to fit the 360 snuggly.
Watch out for this if you're getting fender flares! Fibreglass flares will NOT bend so if they are made for a different car, you'll have a hard time getting them to fit. I'm almost sorry I need to put fibreglass over those flares though, the exposed pop-rivets look damn sexy on a black car..
