Default 69 F-body Custom Front Inner Fenders Restomod

Building a ‘69 Firebird Restomod.

Builder would like to replace factory front inner fenders with custom ones with a Restomod look.

Is there a fabricator that makes a nice sheet metal pair?

I don't believe anyone in the aftermarket makes steel inner fenders. Anvil makes a wider carbon fiber set, Speedtech performance makes a fiberglass set that they say only fits their subrame, and there's a few fiberglass companies that make some.

Let us know what you find.

There are a plethora of fabricators I'm sure someone here can refer you too. Your location would be a big help.

You will need them fabricated. Do NOT buy ones form a vendor made for a Camaro or you will have fender fitment issues that will take considerable time to resolve.

Unless of course you are up to the task of modifying whichever you buy.

AMES Performance offers correct, accurate 69 only Firebird inner fenders. You could as mentioned alter to your liking and maintain the correct factory fit, alignment, etc.
