I have a pair of 68 NOS RS fenders for a non RS car. I know non RS can be converted to RS. What about the other way around converting RS to non RS? Thanks, Bill D

Thanks, Bill D VINTAGE CAMARO Dec 22nd, 04, 03:45 PM If you already have the standard brackets to put back on and can rebend the other folds, then it can be done. JHunter Dec 22nd, 04, 08:38 PM IMHO, youd be insane to take a set of NOS RS fenders and do anything to them. If you want NOS Standard fenders, sell your NOS RS fenders on Ebay, then buy a set of NOS Standard fenders on ebay, and pocket the difference, which would be in your favor by anywhere from $200 to $800. I would say, DONT TOUCH THEM lol. bbd564 Dec 23rd, 04, 12:46 AM The sell the RS fenders and buy the non RS fenders was always the plan. My only problem is the RS fenders were on a car and painted, (but sitll have the GM tags) so I know the value has to be taken down quite a bit. I would really like to find the non rs fenders in the same situation as mine. Everett#2390 Dec 23rd, 04, 01:01 AM I'm in the same situation, have RS fenders and need Std fenders. Where does one get the standard brackets, besides cutting off the orig ones? bbd564 Dec 23rd, 04, 02:27 AM Most be someone out there having std fenders and wanting RS? Actually, I just need the pass side fender. JHunter Dec 24th, 04, 06:10 PM I've seen several sold on ebay, usually not very high of a price, in the same sort of condition you mentioned. Even though its not NOS since its painted, if you clean it up, take a picture of the GM sticker on the inside and some explanation, I think you'll still make out fine. I have a OEM Driver side, but sadly, while pushing the car into my garage when I moved here, the car hit the garage door, and put a dent in it. It wasnt in bad shape prior that. I found a replacement GM OEM RS fender for $50.00 on ebay, but the guy must not have known what even a used, but in excellent shape OEM fender would bring. I got the fender on a "buy it now" deal. Anyway, Im rambling, but I would still say, to both of yall, dont mess up a OEM RS fender, they are very short supply, even if they arent NOS. Merry CHRISTmas. JHunter Dec 24th, 04, 06:12 PM Actually, bbd564, shoot me an email. I have a Passenger side GM Standard fender. Its got surface rust, but is in great shape, and I need a GM RS fender. We might be able to work something out... |
