Is there a template available for the sound insulation on the the top of fenders? (73 3.0cs)
Yes. I painted both pre and post install. When I installed them painted, the paint cracked so I wire brushed the paint off and painted in situ. I suggest sealing/priming/painting the bare metal, install the pieces, and paint again. Then clear the entirety to seal. The primer/paint doesn’t adhere well to the rubber so any manipulation will cause cracks/flakes. Clear coat is essential.has anyone tried painting the cswerk version?
If you lay some color under first you won’t run the possibility of paint not getting into the crevices between the edges of the rubber and the fenders and showing from underneath, with also no worries about over-applying to get into those crevices.Perfect timing for this. Just purchased this and I am meeting with the painter this week to instruct him to seal, prime, paint and clear coat per Don's recommendation.
I'd guess between zero and nonehow effective are these?
Effective at covering rust for some I suppose.So other than being OEM and losing points at a show, how effective are these?
