The paint on my 914 where the fiberglass fender flares are attached to the body is cracking (and separating?). What do I do? Any suggestions would be appreciated. We just purchased the car and had a similar problem with the last 914 we owned. We are looking to do body work and repaint this car so any ideas or proven success would be wonderful to know about! Thanks so much!

I am getting ready to do the same thing to my car. The research I have done has led me to 3M 8115 panel bond adhesive to stick it to the car, and to fill with duraglass ( a filler with fiberglass strands) and a coat of plain filler to smooth out the finish. I have not startedas of yet, but I have been told that the 3M glue is used on many of the new cars being built today. I will do a thread when I start the process this summer.
