Hardwyre Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I was modifying an old grill to fit my Z because it didn't have a bumper or grill when I got it, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of options for buying one. So I figured why not use what I already have on hand. I was trying to make both sides equal on their contour and found there was more of a gap on the driver side than the passenger. I am curious, do I have two different fenders on my car? Did different years have different curves? Here's pictures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 It looks like the valance end pieces may be different between years, or one is bent. One thing is for sure, you aren't dealing with fender differences, just end pieces.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The driver side sticks out nearly an inch further than the passenger. I may just replace them with an air dam, just trying to decide on one I like. Is there any way to try and bend them without destroying the paint? Heat gunning the paint first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
