72725, Fiberglass
Posted by spike14485, May-26-04 07:19 AM
I just got some Fiberglass Fenders and they fit like shit. I was wondering what you guyz do to fix fiberglass. For example the Fender is like shifted to one side so when i try and bolt it on it does not fit right, is there away to bend it without breaking it? theres also like a 1inch gap between the fender and the headlight and ideas how to fix that?

Thanx

1" gap? Holy fuck, return them dude. That's just shitty fuckin quality right there. You could whip out the resin, fiber, and mat and build that gap in, but I'd just send that shit back.

yah send them back, I mean you could break it and fiberglass it like they said, but your futher ahead to just send that peice back. Good luck with the next set bro. I feel your pain...anything I ever go to do to my car never turns out to be as easy as it seems. Whether it be ordering something or fixing something. Never fails.

Mine fit like crap too... but after moving them around, filing, and puddying the hell out of them, they don't look TOO bad... still needs some work yet tho.
