i just got in a wreck in my 73 914 and the body shop is probably going to work on the car, while they were at it i was thinking of having them put some flares on... i was wondering what was better altogether... fiberglass or steel? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

9in no problem for me! (w/steel) I am gonna run 7s & 8s X 16 fuchs, 1" spacers with 944 turbo offset ....... I hope that will work ...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) ................ do you have any pics of your machine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)?? I went FG for cost reasons. My car was dumpster material so I wasn't looking for originality. I just wanted a cool looking cruiser. Mine will not be a restoration level either ...... just a functionally solid, great looking GT clone example ........ but since I have a new Miller Inverter TIG coming ...... I have no choice but to do 'perfect' flares in steel ........ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
