Okay, so here's a new thread because I resurrected an old one that was off topic...yes I should've known better (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
Just wanting to know a little bit more about this style of fender work on the blue car. Is this custom work or an aftermarket replacment? I don't think I've seen anything close to this in my 10 months of stalking in the forums. But my first impression is that I really like it. Subtle but still curvy. If it's custom, who among us would be doing this type of work...I imagine rolling fenders is a bit of a lost art nowadays.

Look for pictures of "GTEENER". The Cap'n can tell you about how that one was done.
We've also seen pictures of VW Rabbit flares used on a 914, and it was similar but I think a bit less subtle. --DD |

One topic alone was dbl digit page count (Oil Cooler thread). After two hours I'm not seeing any flared pics. What am I missing? I'm gonna try searching on Member FERG since he posted the only copy of this car that I've seen so far. But first I'm going to get some sleep. Zzzz Zzzz |
