Mocking up the kafer-cup fenders from CSP today. They fit beautifully.

Don't know anything about the fenders... but really DIG the front sway bar and front brake setup. VERY cool!

These are some Kerscher fenders. They are really well done but pretty heavy for fiberglass fenders. I had the same on my race beetle in 1993. They are pretty kool but you almost have to set up your car at the stock height if not they touch on the tires... So not really good for a fast track race car.

Actually, they fit very well with the wheels and the front is pretty low. I guess it depends on the offset and tire size. What wheels were you running on your car with the Kerscher fenders?

I had forgotten about that thread. Ratto started that one a while back.

Looking good
BTW, Ray has your parts to machine as of yesterday.
I bet those 928S wheels fill those fenders nicely.

Sweet!!!
The wheels fit nicely, but I have to order spacers to push the wheels out a bit. If I can track down a set of the Porsche/BBS RS 3 piece 16" wheels, I may swap those in eventually......but for right now getting the beast running is the main priority
