Well done and informative. I'll be tearing my 71 Super Beetle apart soon. Cheers.

It's such a shame that the aftermarket parts can't be exactly patterned from the originals. This is why I spend the extra time reworking the originals or hunting for NOS parts. I'd rather pay the money for something that's going to fit precisely, rather than jury rig a part; it's why my '73 SB spent the last two years off the road.

For those with the option, absolutely! Some don't have that time or option so showing how to fit aftermarket parts is definitely helpful!

When you moved the running/turn lights to the bumper, what did you do to fill the Holes in the fender?
@Sam_Mebane

The smaller holes are just welded up, a piece of sheet metal is good for the larger center hole.

Thomas, they are a new supplier to us and I am not sure if our supplier is the manufacturer or a middle man. These fenders were actually prototypes and stayed with the car (I welded up the turn signal holes and they are painted now). Other than the headlight tabs (which they have fixed) the fenders were outstanding. Thick, heavy steel with nicely rolled edges, not an original German fender but pretty darn close!

Some, such as the fenders from this supplier (beige coated) are close to if not thicker than original. Black coated fenders are not as thick.
