2 Inch Wider Beetle Guards Fibreglass
RAW069 - May 13th, 2020 at 09:51 PM

Hi guys

Anyone got any hot tips on tracking down 2 inch wider rear beetle guards (for my '69)?

Standard profile.

And I have considered widening the steelies but am leaning toward fibreglass to maintain a great profile.

Cheers
Cam

These are 2" over, I think I got them from Vintage Veedub years ago, I think they are a rip of from this crowd.

Lots of work widening steelies more time a and labour each guard will cost over a $1000 in time if you have to pay
