I just bought my new wheels and tires and need to find a wide body for the car now. Wanting something like the sheridan standard body.
Let me know what you got.
Thanks

Thanks guys,
I just bought the rear fenders and valance so now i need a front solution.
I have seen a set of fenders on ebay from redwood city ca and they look good but as usual he is expensive. Does anyone know about these front fenders. I would like to keep the stock front nose.

I know you changed out for GTs from 930s and now sold the GTs but what do you think of the 930s for the front?

I think that i was driven to the 930 flares due to my original dislike for the gt flares. As time went on i grew to like the gt flares and the 930 flares started to look very 80's like the chalon kit. After getting the new wheels and tires on the car and holding the gt flares up to it, all of the memories of dislike came back and they were too small anyways.seems like a tough car to put a flare on and not have a strange spot. I think just do what you will be happy looking at when you walk up to the car.

Thanks

I looked at the EBay listing on the fenders and at $700. You would have to pick them up as the guy said he would not ship. The good news is it is around one hour from you.
I think the fiberglass is too thin and would crack on you. You could have a shop back the fenders with another layer of fiberglass and resin to thicken them up. I do not think the extra weight would matter to you. I have found that when the fiberglass is thin it is hard to do body work on it and paint and finish as it bows under pressure.

Just an idea.

Those fiberglass ones would be pretty easy to make out of steel.

I have some steel slant nose that would be about right for your front tires...200.00 plus shipping

Thanks for the advice Bob.
ablesnead thank you but i am not a fan of the slant nose 914 looks too rx-7ish

Thanks guys for all of your input. I have been digging around the internet and talking to people about options and i think i am going to be getting the qrs glass gt front fenders and modify the flare to better match the sheridan rears that i bought because i really want to keep the stock looking front and rear bumpers
