Who'd you get the kit from? Hopefully they can supply a better copy.

Ok, some kits are a little different from other, mine came from paragon. L-shaped piece goes in the suspension mounting(PITA) I ended up making some releif cuts, so I could shape it in easier, also the use of a BFH smash.gif is good. the others are easily seen in the picture. with the exception of the one that goes behind the jack post and bends around. unsure.gif hope this helps. if you have any more qustions I'll be glad to go shoot some more pics.
BTW: not my car, but I just ordered that front bumper, I'l post some pics once I finish the left side fender and flare.

You want me to make my inner fenderwell look like that? J/k Mine came from the old web site www.dgi.net/914 about 2 years ago. Thanks for the pics so far. Where did you get the front bumper? I busted my valace pan the other day on a parking block it was a limited edtion fiber glass. I got used to drving my truck where I half to pull all the way into the spot, so I normally just pull up till my wheels hit the parking block. That doesnt work in a 914. Are you driving around with one flare?

That is how it looked before cleaning up the welds and coating with POR-15

No, I'm doing a completed restoration and coversion to six. I just finished welding on a new fender I got from Jon Watts, and should have the flare on by tonight. I try to shoot some pics of the finished fenderwell if I can get my camera to start working again.

Here are the instructions that I have. Or at least the illustrations from the instructions. Note that all but the first piece will require some forming (read: heat and smash.gif ), and that a couple of them may require trimming if you still have your fenders on the car.
