Do not know if any of this will help, but again, might be restricted due to your want of the wheel arch liners?

Re: What to do about the 914 Dent?

Not sure what the side view is showing, and whether the wheel arch is dented more than is showing on the side on photo? The side view does not look too bad, and a ‘Dent Master’ should be able to get most of that out. Once done, try this method for fixing the area where the paint has come away? https...

Re: Your Porsche pic of the day......

Lovely picture, you can almost hear it! As to descriptions of these cars; back in the day (70's/ 80's ish) cars were 'modified'. Modified for 'Fast Road Work' another term that still grates with me, or modified for racing, rallies etc, far better description, but then there were spins on cars and t...
