If they included a recessed bonding flange it would be pretty easy for anyone with a little fibergalss skill to zip the SC fender section off at the mold lines, bond the new narrow-hip fender sections on and then dish grind and fiberglass everything together. They could sell them as an owner-installed option or even do it themselves.

Maybe something for Mr. Bruce to consider doing for ERA, FFR and Shelby fiberglass bodies.

I like the idea! More options for us picky types...
