Can someone identify if this is rolled/Flared
So my rear bumper doesnt match up with the fender at all. Can someone tell if this has been rolled or flared. I didnt see or feel any weld lines on the inside of my fender so I'm a little confused. Thanks

Take it back, mabey they used earlier non flared rear bumpers on your car. They don't quite look like SC or RS flares but they do appear to be a little different than the 69-73 from the pictures.

To me that seems to be a touch wider than 73 fenders but I don't know if its so much as to cause that big of a width discrepancy. I would guess there is a light roll on those fenders. You could bend and weld the bumpers out at the end to match up with the fender. Just going to need to weld in a bit of metal to even it up.

they look more like sc fenders to me.

Definitely not SC Fenders , not wide enough and the flat spots are too narrow.

It's hard to tell from the photo angle but my vote would be that they are the standard rear fender. I believe that the bumper alignment is off. The rear bumpers should stick out from the body (the portion between the tail light and the rear part of the flare) by quite a bit. I found an image quickly on the net (not my car) of a bare fender with the bumper matching up pretty well. You can also see the degree of flare from the back is pretty significant in these cars.
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1218046455.jpg I'm wondering if the bumber is mounted in a skewed fashon, in that the front part (by the wheel arch) is pulled in too much. It looks as if the seal is too far back as well. The seal should be flush with the body part of the car. The flare is definatly not an SC flare though. They are a completly convex shape from the fender lip back to where they connect with the top of the fender. |
