Hi guys!

For my ‘64 Bug I want to have a rear apron without the ‘holes’ for the exhaust.
How did you do this?

Bought one or made it yourself?
Where can I buy one? Metal or maybe fiberglass?

Thanks!

I had a fibreglass one without holes a few years ago but that was only a single skin. The '67 valence on my car has a centre cut out, with the original holes cut away and replaced with a rolled panel. Richie has an interesting look on his floorpan cars with the two cut outs joined up - works really well with the '67 engine lid but might not with your '64.
