A 964 w/ tip should not be hard to find..and the prices for them are very favorable these days.

I wonder if on a 964 backdate, if it wouldn't be easier to do the front fender ("wing" speak English you nuts!) treatment that the article in 911 World described. That is, use the stock fenders and weld on the leading edges of an early fender.

Jeremy's ST front flares are going to be welded on anyway, so welding on the leading edge of the early fenders wouldn't be difficult. Add a hood (f-glass) and a RSR front fender, and BAM! you have long hood. The rear treatment would be about the same.

Removing the fenders is probably more of a PITA than welding on the leading edges of the fenders and the flares, me thinks!

While looking for early fenders, I found some that had badly corroded rocker areas and flare area. The turnsignal area is likely to corrode too, but if one is looking for just a good turnsignal area, the chances are likely better than findign a whole good fender. Get the idea?
