Who makes steel fender flares?

Looking to put a widebody on my narrobody C4, and I wanted to use steel flares. Been trying to search for what's available out there.

Let me know if you guys have any leads/info.

thanks.

Are there issues using the 930 flares on a 964 other than the holes for torsion bar clearance which can be filled? thanks

I'm also interested for my '92 C2, are the 930 flares a simple install that will look just like the 965? Assuming the torsion bar holes are filled?

Thanks

The 930 flares are shaped the same as the 965 flare, BUT where the torsion bar hole is completely different than a 965 or a 964 fender. There is a large cut out and holes for a shark fin (2nd half of a rocker panel) this covers that large different opening vs the 930 fender. jim jdorociak@gmail.com

the actual rear 965 flare is not available separately, but rather is the complete quarter panel. You could contact the Porsche dealer or a salvage yard, but just know these are very expensive. -- I think you could use the 930 flare and then modify by the torsion bar hole with the 964 cut out and test fit with a factory 965 shark fin.
