Default Virtually No Cars Have Fender Flares Like This Anymore

As Andy Rooney used to say on 60 Minutes "have you ever noticed..."

For years now, virtually everything at any price or performance level has wheel openings that look like they were finished off by running them by a horizontal mill, often taking a wide cut. No make, model or price point seems to be immune. They are more ubiquitous than, gag me, black wheels.

The flares on the 427 Cobras and C6 GS and Zo6 are magnifique, wunderbar, glorious, to me. I miss them.

Yeah, one could argue that these have a milled edge, but it's miniscule in relation to the overall size of the flare.
