? on Custom Flares

I have read many posts on duplicating factory flares. I have no experience working with metal. This is just my thoughts on the matter. I do like the GT flares on the car. I really like those that have custom flares done though. I like the flares most that keep the original style/shape of the 914. I wondered what the possibilities were of getting a rear quarter off a junker. Then kinda extending the rear quarter out at the top. Cutting out the old quarter & adding the one from the junker. Is this making sense to anyone. I'm afraid I can picture it easier than I can explain it. I have a 75' project on the side of hte house I'm thinking of doing this on! Am I kidding myself. My project I can afford to screw up as I got it cheap. Engine will come last so I really am not to worried if it doesn't work. I do have a good buddy who's been racing for years & has done alot of welding. Anyway your thoughts are appreciated!
