these flared fenders have the door opener indents built into the fenders.
i'm trying to figure out the proper way to affix these fenders but i'm just not getting it. i was thinking of just screwing the whole fender over the existing one but something tells me that it isn't even close to how it should be done. LOL the other part of me thinks these fenders are designed to be attached by completely removing the old fenders and installing attachment points, then screwing the fenders into the attachment points. is this right? HELP!!! Attached image(s) |

Dr. Roger,
I'll post a few pics later today...after I figure out how to get my stupid scanner working again! By the way, Brett's idea to step down the lip that the fibreglass sits into is a great idea. I had asked my body guy to do it this way and he told me the expensive would skyrocket. I just cut the fibreglass back behind the door handle indent (2 inches behind) Glued the body panel to what's left of the fender, applied temporary screws to hold it tight, and then off to the body shop for serious grinding, massaging, filling, etc. The step down lip is the best way...but my stuff hasn't cracked or fallen off yet.
