AIR fiberglass flares, ?? Options

[Philhill]

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

Get your wheels on the car THEN fit the flares so the wheels are centered in the openings. Unfortunately, the quality of many (most) fiberglass parts means you can't count on them to fit exactly. Plan on reworking areas to achieve the fit you want.
Panel bond is the way to go unless you like the riveted-on look.
Do a LOT of research before you start so you're clear on what you're getting yourself into.
I don't say that to discourage you in any way but to help ensure you don't get overly frustrated when you run into challenges.
And start a build thread here so we all can watch, learn and help.
Best of luck with your build!
