Danny,

THe method that I used was to fiberglass in several bolts on the inside of the new fiberglass fenders.  You can then make holes in the original panel and put nuts and washers on from the inside of the car. (You will have to remove the side panels of the rear seats to get access to this area).  The ends of the new fiberglass panels are attached with metal screws from the underside so that they do not show.  In this way it is a very clean installation, with no bolts or screws showing on the outside.

Best regards

Paul vander Heyden

I used bolts on my car too. Only diference from Paul is that I did not fiberglass the bolts to the fenders and they can be seen from tha outside as you can see in the picture.

Does anyone have a photo of the fenders from the rear?  Do you have to "fit" the glass to the rear of the fenders to make it match up, or is a little of the original metal fender exposed inboard of the tail lights?
