I've got the burnt 914 that needs the left rear fender removed and replaced. I have a parts car that has a good fender. I also want to replace the sail panel. How should I remove the fender? However you recommend, I'll use the exact same method for removing the parts car item. Once I remove the fender, I'll need to replace the door striker and some inner engine compartment sheet metal. Please be very specific and provide pics if possible. Thanks again for all of your help.

Well, the removal of the left rear fender continues. I've drilled out all of the spot welds, using the 3/8" spot weld drill bit
(bought at Eastwood Co for $19.99 + shipping) and a 1/4" regular drill bit (for the spot welds where the 3/8" wouldn't fit, see pics). Here's a pic with 95% of the fender apart. It also shows where I used the 3/8" and the 1/4" drill bits. There are 2 places that are still connected, the air tube and where the fender meets the rear tail light housing. Attached image(s) |
