Sent you a PM Cole

These are fenders with a WIDE FLARE ??
It they are "stock" looking, then --> PLEASE PM me!

Very wide race car flares

Nuts. Oh well, thanks of the note!

Hello rcmike
Are these kits still available?

Cole has a set that he could sell...

Thanks

Well the first attempt was an expensive hot mess.
Spent WAY tooo much time reviewing the Youtube videos by people "WHO HAVE a CLUE"" , for motivation.
Many hours of labor to get the orignal metal fenders as "perfect" as possible.
Stunk up the garage ( and house) from the "tooling gel coat" and the multiple layers of fiberglass.
Despite the multiple coats of mold release wax and PVA coatings, i had mechanical "locks" which drove my nutz.
The fiberglass was then cut away and we are back to square one.

True but Tesla almost eat his lunch had Tesla lived longer.

Ate (opsss)

Got the fenders repaired from my hacking the the first attempted fiberglass debacle.

Got the holes plugged up with clay and now pondering whether to attempt to make a one piece plug mold or go for a multi part mold .

The impending rain stopped the progress for this weekend
