I think I might have found a shop to do this. I'm hoping I'll know for sure by today or early next week. I still need to take pictures, but I will very soon.

I asked the bodyshop, but they couldn't help me out.


I found a custom fabrication shop. I'm just having a LOT of trouble gettin' through to them.

Well keep at it I know I much rather use metal then FG I have even entertained the idea of using 911 fenders. So if this can happen I would love to buy a pair.

Please Help!!!

If ANYONE knows a very reputable shop I could send these to to get replicated PLEASE contact me. I really don't mind going through the trouble to duplicate them, but I need it done FAST. My car's in the bodyshop as we speak and they will eventually need these back to put them on.



Right now, I'm trying to find a local shop to atleast duplicate one set so I can use the original for my car. We can use the duplicated one and hopefully find an awesome fabricator to copy these for everyone else!

i was waiting to see a group buy for these but if you don't have anyone lined up to make these ill give it a shot, i would only need your metal flares just to trace all 6 sides and send them back to you same day.

did you notice any warpage from welding?

let me know if you are interested.

That's an old picture. The car looks very different now + I've had wheels wrapped with tires for over a year now. Just waiting for the right time to install...hopefully soon

I had this information somewhere before, but off the top of my head I can't remember. I believe it's 23 or so mm, but don't quote me on that. My wheel offsets are not yet proven so I won't give out that information. Here's a few pics of the wheel though, if you care to see:

These are the burnout kit fenders...only they've been replicated in steel. The original burnout fenders are made out of glass or a hybrid material, depending on where you purchase them from.

I am remember the thread when you purchased this off a forum member, why don't you just ask them where they got it done?
