fiberglass fenders for super beetle - anyone making them?


does anyone make slightly widened fenders for super beetles in Australia?

I'm looking for fenders that retain the original lines, just fatter, like the German Look stuff.

Find out who has the moulds- it's no drama to make 1 set or 50.

sorry, should have realised the aero look ones would get a mention but they arent what I want. And steel mods on my existing fenders arent an option.

yeah thanks Camo, importing might be the only option. There is a car and car parts import company I can use in Perth who ship from the West Coast so it looks like I could use them to make the shipping cost reasonable. Actually the kits in the US are quite reasonably priced.
