QUOTE(mate914 @ Feb 25 2024, 06:01 AM)  I can get you a pick if you want, but they are old plastic with some small cracks and I hate them. Matt (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) Ha! You really should be in sales. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) Thanks all. I got (what I think is) really good advice from someone here who has flared a few cars. To mount the rocker panels first, then fit the flares accordingly. Makes complete sense to me. So, still looking..... |

So, still looking..... Due respect to your friend but I wouldn't mount the rockers first. There's too much variance in aftermarket parts, let alone 914 chassis, to count on the rocker getting the flares in the right place. You run the risk of not having the wheel centered in the flare. Fit the flares, then do what's needed to make the rockers fit. |
