Do you have a flared car?

Good luck.

They've been around for a long time, they're plastic/fiberglass & replace the stock steel ones. They do not fit flared cars & have to be modified to do so. They were on my six when I bought it & I took them off & sold them to be replaced with smooth fiberglass ones designed for flared cars.

Type 1 beetle fender molding has been used before for this,cheap and cheerful.

I believe that the rockers with the raised letters did have flared-out ends that were supposed to match up with the GT fender flares.

Though I recall that whoever made them had some very loose definitions of "match up"...

Dave, they do have flared out ends that match pretty damned nicely w/ a narrow body, but they're not even close on GT flares.
