I have looked serached up and down, left and right...yet nothing can anyone help, have you ever had luck finding a wheel lip, I'd much rather replace that instead of an entire panel. Let me know if you can help please. Thanks

you dont have to replace the whole panel. both Year One and Ground up have partial quarter panels. the lower quarter partials go from about the body line down to wheel well. i am going to have to do the same thing. my uncle flared the lips out and filled them with body filler when he was young.

The problem is none of the retailers want to tell me if it fits a 4 door, would you happen to know?:thumbsup:

i took a second look and they only list the "partial quarters" for 70-72. you might have to get the full skin and cut out only what you need and patch them in. the wheel lip should be the same for 2&4 door. Year one has set of left and right skins for $416. a bit pricey for if you only need the lips. you might want to find a donor car if you can. they also have patch panels for wheel wells that dont include the whole lip. here is the link. i hope it helps.
