Posted: Sun Sep 05, 2004 12:31 am Post subject: Secret to getting front fenders off? |
|
|
I'm trying to get the front fenders off of my 924 project car. I have all the bolts I can find taken out. It seems there is some kind of clip on the bottom by the door, but I cant seem to figure out how to get the fender to let go of the clip.
Any suggestions?
Thanks. _________________ - Derrik |

There are 3 bolts on the inside of the fender that mount it to the door post. You will have to scrape the body sealant away to find them. One at the top, one in the middle, and one down at the bottom. Also, there will be one on the pinch weld at the bottom of the fender, two connecting it to the front valance, and one at the nose panel. They are all 10mm, you just have to dig them out. _________________ MJ

I remember wrecnching a fender and F'n it up the first time I did one. A perfect galvinized fender at that. I was unhappy to say the least. _________________ MJ

Yeah, that would be the one at the nose panel. But thanks for re-affirming that for me. _________________ MJ
