I am installing a Chalon kit on my '72 914. I have some questions that are inadequately addressed in the kit literature. Does anyone have experience putting the fenders on? I have cut the metal and prepped the surfaces. I need to know how much of the chalon fiberglass channel to remove before mounting.
Thnx |

Hey Stirling, I also noticed something looking at your pictures, you do not have the same Chalon kit as I got from Mitcom, your front fenders go over the lip and into the channel, mine did not, they were cut and designed to go under the lip that you have cut on the fender. You cut looks right but the fenders should match that cut where it flares out on the very front. You rear fenders look a little different also, mine were cut off before the tail light area and did not extend all the way to the tip. My kit is from Mitcom direct about 4 years ago, maybe 5, time goes by so fast. I have a clean instruction book I can make copies of and send them to you in an email. It might take a day or so as I have a lot to do work wise the next few days. If you want it, let me know. It is pretty detailed.
