I just bought my first 914 and it just showed up this morning from the west coast. So needless to say, I’m new to the board and the car…. My first order of business is to start collecting parts needed to begin body work. This leads me to my question:
Steel GT fenders VS Fiberglass. Has anyone used fiberglass fenders on their street cars??? Have they cracked??? Have they held up to the true test of time??? Or should I save up and get the steel ones?? Thanks for any feedback! |

I hate my glas flares. They look ok but because the car is Black they tend to show read thru. (on hot days you can see the glas mat thru the paint)
I've posted my comments several times before. After 10 years of post curing, I think they are now a little more stable. If I had to do it over I would do them in steel. |
