Adding some flare

Spent a couple of hours on Saturday fitting the fender flares. These are the SC type and will extend the width by a total of 8 inches to match the RUF replica bumper. The flares are the most challenging part of the glass work as they require a lot of work to fit. Lining them up at the torsion bar holes has them forward by about a half inch. The decision was made to ignore the torsion holes and go for the fit that looked the best, particularly in alignment with the rear bumper. The space for the torsion holes will be cut out and feathered into the panels.
With the basic fit established I started work on the right side. The plan is to shape the sheet metal into the underside of the flare. This will provide more surface area for the panel adhesive and a blended finish in the wheel well. The goal is to make it near impossible to tell that the glass flares have been mounted. Cutting the fender lip got things started in earnest. A few more cuts and the sheet metal should be fairly easy to work with.
