Besides, it looks to be designed for round fender openings, not the bizzare flat topped 914 ones. Just use a baseball bat. smile.gif

We use a baseball bat, in fact one of our customers rolled his supercup car this past weekend at Mosport, most damage was to the left rear quarter, we beat the fender out with a sledge, then rolled it with a bat while dressing the distorted metal.

raced the enduro the next day and placed 2nd overall, First in class w00t.gif

I didn't use a baseball bat but used a length of 2 inch pvc pipe. Now I wish I hadn't. Unless you are real careful or real lucky or in fact actually know what you are doing you'll end up with two creases in each fender like I did. I got plenty of clearance now but a little body work will have to be done to get it right. I think Bondo is right, I think this thing was meant for a constant radius fender opening. See ya Wednesday night.
Cheers, Elliot
