New Fender

[Janusz1]

So, I hit the deer - took one second or less.
1978 930. Luckily I was going slow, maybe 40,
The left light, fog light, fender and hood are damaged.
It is better to have them replaced rather then repaired, right?
Are fenders and hood available? Original Porsche?
I am stressed.

Hi Janusz1,

Sorry to hear about the damage to your car. Glad no one was hurt.

Your fender is not available from Porsche as it is an early welded on flair I believe. You might want to get a early used front fender and have it cleaned up and painted. The later one piece front fenders are probably available but I'm not 100% sure on that. The hood should be the same for 1974 thru 1989 at least, probably longer. Need to know what headlight you have, sugar scoop, H4, H1, H5, ?

Someone with more body experience may chime in but this has been my experience.


Make sure you check the rear fenders and doors for small dents and scratches. sometimes they contact in several places.

Best of luck,

Rahl

Thanks for answering,
The headlights are European h4 with flat black trim ring.
