IB years front fenders

Recommended Posts

Team, enlighten me. Is there any difference between early and later front fenders on IB models?  I'm looking mainly around the wheel arch area. I bought a left side fender recently to replace my rather rusty one. On Sunday I was doing a bit of work on it and realised that the lip around the arch seems a lot flatter. As in less flared. It just has a small rolled lip.

Mine is an 81 SC. The fender I got has no side indicator.

Different years have different size flares. For example '74-77 I believe have almost no flare at all, but 78 onwards have wider flares in a carerra style I think.

that pretty much sums up the difference between what's on the car and what I bought. Looks like I'll have to onsell it.

yep, 74-77 is "narrow body" while the SC and Carreras a wider.

One for the boffins: Are C3 the same as SC?

Use it as a patch panel or too good to cut up?

 

I could do that.  In fact, I think I will do that.

Just googled a few Carrera 2.7 & 3.0.  They look the same as SC, and same part number 911 503 031 04.
