    How to/How I built fenders

    Well...I'm on a mission...be the first to post in as many forums as possible.

    Here are some pics on how I built my fiberglass fender plugs and eventually got the molds done. These are pics for the front fenders.

    Fiberglass fenders done and on the car. Good luck with your project. May not be perfect but I did it.

    Price should be around $800 for a full set of four. Just fronts or just rears would be about $500.

    PM me if you are seriously interested.

    Vince, with that skillset you should look into making some spats. I'll take a set in carbon fibre or stainless steel
