front fender repair panels?
So I have a 1970 911t and the front fender (wing) panels are in great shape apart from the rear bottom lip. Does anyone make a repair panel for this area because I can't find any.
Also looking for repair panels for the bottom of the rear quarters? |

Restoration design sell parts of panels. they will also cut bits off panels to save you freight if you are in the UK or elsewhere.

I guess I was looking for a lot cheaper as the repair panel I need is tiny compared to a $1800 fender

As you know they usually just rust out below the headlight, so fingers crossed you get lucky with a cheap second hand one with the bit you want.

Call a parts salvage and ask for a lower fender cut from a later car. Up through 89 the outer skin is the same. Have them cut 12" off dogleg section to save shipping.
RD only has the SWB versions

I just knew that oddly enough in the not too distant past I had run across some outfit that made Alfa Romeo rust repair panels that made this part for our Porsches. I've scoured the web and finally found them. Try these guys:

I was also looking for that same Alfa link. Not sure if he still makes them.
Cory, RD only has the SWB version. The outer lip profile is different from SWB to LWB cars.
