Last night on my commute home my '74 914 2.0 was hit in the rear by a Mercedes Sedan, the driver fled the scene (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) and my insurance company explained to me today, that yes, you are insured against uninsured drivers and therefore against hit and run accidents but only for medical expenses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) , I guess next time I read the fine print better.

Now i need to fix the body and get a new paint job so I guess its time for the GT flares, 5 Lug conversion, Brake upgrade and Fuchs.

I do have some questions that I hope to get answered:

- Which are the best (probably steel) GT flares, also for the money?

- Where do I get the best fibreglass bumpers? GTracing?

- Do 8 inch fuchs fit in the rear?

- Whats the best spindle and hub to use in the front, I do want to run at least SC Calipers and the matching vented discs?

- What parts exactly of the 76/77 911 rear hub do I need for the rear conversion to five lug?

I know these are a lot of questions I hope you guys can help.

Thank you

Cornelius

PS Maybe somebody has seen something on the 91 west bound in LA on Friday around 6:50 pm?!
