Hi all,

 

I just wanted to give Kevin at Sousa Speed some public feedback for his fiberglass fenders. The transaction was painless and I got the fenders in about a week. They look great, and I will take a picture and add them here. It will be a while before I get them on the car, so some shots of the raw product will have to suffice.

 

Dave

OK, finally got some time to get the mounting holes drilled in the fenders.

 

Here is a link to my conversion blog with the pictures and words of advice if you have never worked with fiberglass like me.

 

They still need some fine tuning on my mounting holes and then paint, but overall, very good fit.

 

Thanks Kevin!

I have added a few more pictures with the Fenders mounted on the car. Still not painted, but you can see the fit.

Glad to see the pictures of them all mocked up! thanks again =) And dont feel too bad about that chip from the drill. I'll admit I did something similar on my fender when drilling the hole for the tab nearest the passenger side hood hinge. And if you ever decide to replace the header panel, Id be more than happy to make one of those for you as well.
