renegade spoiler and wheels
I got the 914 restore and modify book for Christmas. Thanks Wayne and Wild Gill. The renegade 914v8 on the back cover has a very nice spoiler with oil cooler holes in it. Where can I get mine and who makes it. Also, it had C2 wheels with only slightly modified wells. I assume 7 1/2" all around. Looks darn good. I'm conviced now I want 5 lugs. What size tires are on it?

OK. I read the book. The tire sizes are given inside. I want those wheels and tires on my car. I also want that front spoiler. How do I modify my fenders to fit, and still have them look so stock. I don't want to put GT flares on my 2.0 liter. And who makes that fron spoiler?

You probably just need to roll the fenders. Not really a hard job and should only take you 15-30 min. Jim O. (another member here) and I have done this on another 914 and a friends truck, so I know it works.
You need an old WOODEN bat. (NOT METAL!) and a friend. Place the smaller end of the bat at the front of the fender opening against the tire, then slowly move the car foward the bat will roll to the other side of the fender. Repeat until you have enough clearance. Depending on how close the tire is to the fender and how big the bat is determines how much the fenders flare out. Also be careful of the bottom hand grip on the bat it can leave a nasty dent in the fender. Let us know how well this works if you end up doing it. |
