Anyone know how these flares were made? there is a lip on the inside as if it were rolled with an eastwood type flare tool. Dimensionally, it is exact same across bottom of wheel wells as a stock fender. In one picture, you can see there is a flat across the top instead of an arc which matches the stock 914. I'm restoring another and really like the look and am thinking about the eastwood flare. Problem to this point is I cant find one for rent that has 4x130mm adapter.
