Over the years I have seen several cars with the rear fenders burped out a bit like the car of the month.

How is that done and how do you get both sides the same?

You can actually buy a tool to do it from body shop supply stores or do the shade tree method whis is to work it with a baseball bat or some other cylinder that can be put between the tire and inner fender. Do a search on rolling your fenders...

Given the car is a 914 and they are known to have funky dimensional control, I would use the distance between the tire and the outer fender as the measure for getting it the same. If you use the inner wall they could have been different measures before you start...
