I'm considering doing a wide arch conversion to my fourteen and was weighing up the options.
Does anyone have pictures of the 914 with Rabbitt (Golf) flares? Ideally I'm looking to get 17 x 7 or 8 at the front and 17 x 8 or 9 in the rear. |

Question about installation for those who've done it. . .
How much of the Rabbit fender do you need? Is it similar to the factory M471 kits? Leave a couple inches 'round the edges? Also, on istallation, do you cut exact and booty weld them in? Or do you overlap the flares on and lap weld them? Ed Mayo's racecar looks like it has 16x7 fuchs on it. . . were there spacers involved there? Or was it bolted right up. . . I just got a set of 16x7's and would like to run 225/50's on them w/ a cheap set of flares. . . of course, by the time I calculate time spent (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) . . . welding them in, it'd have been cheaper to buy a set of fiberglass fenders. . . oh well, work harder, not smarter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) . -'Chung |
