Hello to 914 world-
I am starting a build on a 75 1.8. It is a fairly solid car and I am starting with paint and bodywork. I love the look of the 916 (don't have the $$ to do an authentic clone) so have purchased the flares and bumpers from AIR.
I have duct taped the flares on to the car and have broken out the sawzall to start cutting the body but wanted to check to see if anyone on the site had done an install on these AIR parts before irreversible damage is done ;-}. I looked to see if there were any threads for these parts but don't see any, but I am sure that some people have gone before me...am I missing a thread somewhere?
My initial assessment is that there will need to be some tweaking needed to get things to look and fit right.
Many thanks,
Paul

I believe I recall 3M Panel Bond being a favored product for attaching the fg flares. Think about installing the flared rocker panels first, so that the fender flares line up with those when done.
