If anyone here that may be able to reproduce these baby's it would be a bonus for all the 914 owners. If so, let me know and I will trace these out and send you the tracings of the liners. The pictures are of the rear well liners. Let me know so I can trace these out and get them off before I install these. I'm only going to put liners in the rear wells since I have oil lines in the pass. side front I won't be installing the front liners on my car. The rear liners are going in. The are made of a flexable plastic with clips on each for install. They bolt on to the car where the rear valance meets the wheel well and other side connects where the rocker panel meets the well. Very simple install process, the clips that hold them are pop riveted on to the liners.

Okay, lets everbody just calm down here. Nick, I think you have a good point, what if these are patented? We certainly wouldn't want anyone here to get sued over something as silly as fender liners. I think that the reason you got jumped on is your internet "tone" if you will. Basically it is a "I am mightier than you" kind of tone. And your posts seem to irritate a lot of other people as they are generalizations. Now I will be the first to say that there is a whole bunch of us "teener" heads that are cheap (AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE . . . (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) ) But that is not to say that ALL 914 owners are cheap. It is this whole politically correct thing, it is just a way of being polite and not offending people. You say we are being cheap, people take that as an insult. What is I say that your friend who designed and manufactured these is being stingy by charging an astronomical amount for them. What is actually happening here is that someone is re-making a product in order to introduce a balance into the cost structure. There are ways around Patents and it sounds as though they found one. Someone makes something, someone will always make a better one for less. That is the way of the world. Now please lets stop playing games and get back to the real reason we are here: We all LOVE the 914!!! Most of us anywyas, I am sure someone has one here that wont start right now and well . . . .
