A bit of a waste of a thread...but I am wondering if there is a clean way to blend aftermarket fenders?

I see lots of +20/30 fenders that are just riveted to the body...is there a better way of blending these panels? Would rivets and body work be the only way to make things pretty?

Thanks!

Pretty much.

Panel bond/glass/filler work.

That's because on a typical drift car you're going to break fenders eventually, and having bonded fenders would make replacing them, and re bonding them quite difficult, time consuming and expensive.


But now street cars that don't get drifted copy the style.


Blended fenders can be done nicely however it's rare to see.
