Happy New Year to all!
I'm looking for advise on going fiber. I installed a Rennsport 916 bumper my '72. I want to flare the wheel wells now. Can someone comment on fiber flares 7", 9", 11" what size is best? 7 front 9 rear or 9 front 11 rear? Converting to 5 lug seems straight forward but I need advise on wheel offset and tire size. I intend to continue to use the 914 as a weekend, good weather, country road driver, (no concourse racing). Just want bigger tires, little stiffer suspension, and evetually upgraded rotors and calipers. My interest is to convert to higher horsepower after I finish the above. But I'm stuck on the flares! Suggestions anyone? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) Attached image(s)

I wish there was an 9 piece FG kit for the 914. It would have 3 styles to choose from. It would inc front and rear bumper replacments, 2 rocker replacments, 4 wheel flares that run with the rocker replacments and the 9th part a little low profile decoration for the rear trunk lid...... And as a joke add a slim front hood scoop and mess with alot of people that dont know any better!
