Any one know where to get a set of Steel rear fender vents? the only ones I have been able to find have been fiber glass. which crack. There still seems to be a good market out there for them.

 

Ken,
When I was looking for a set I found that Performance Auto carries them. There are several companies that carry them. You might try Google for 930S parts.
LOL

PS
If you want to see my first cut look on the forum for
"Surgery on the old girl", on page three.

 

Performace Products
Pelican Parts

 

nope pelican and performance dont have them anymore at least not in steel

 

Ken,
Get a copy of "Excellence" magazine and look through the classified ads. Look for the Porsche body mod company and give some of them a call. They should be able to help you.

found em NRauto has steel slant nose kits and also has the ducts and rockers that they will sell seperately

 

I had a rabbit run into me in the side busting all three. I managed to repair two but the top one was totally destroyed. I work at a place which does composites work and they had the same material that the factory ones are made of. Basically they are a stiff foam product with a laminate to seal them and then smoothed out and fitted to the body with filler. I know this because of the pieces I picked off the side of the road. I heard they were made of wood at some point and this prove to me to be wrong. Anyway I made my own and it turned out so well that nobody can tell they are not factory. by using the same materials I kept the feel and weight the same as the stock ones. It took me about 4 hrs labour to make it not including the drying time to alow the fiberglass resin I used to seal the foam. Porsche wants $420 EACH!!! I contacted my cousin in Germany and he said they are more there. Unreal...

 

Maybe on the Special Wishes cars(pre-'87) they were wood? That's what mine are.

 

yes I looked them up the factory porsche strakes were wood most of the kits are some type of plastic i did see a fiber glass kit that was advertised that also had them made from wood
