What is correct inside the fenders?
Paint with the same color of the car? I have seen so many 914´s with black material in the fenders. Mine actually has the black material...however, I am considering removing the black material and repainting the wheel wells the color of the car...Light Ivory. If painted...is there a material to spray over the paint to protect it against rock and/or debriss picked up by the tires? |

For this forum... you don't want to put anything under it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) However! If you wanted some protection and not have it sanctioned by the CW body, you may be able to take a lead from the valance thread and spray it with the Wurth 'Shutz' first and then paint it. I know of one tub that was finished that way and it came out looking great. |
