REAR FENDERS

Precision Steel Panels for Every Generation Throughout the production life of the Type 1 chassis, rear fenders underwent several changes to accommodate different taillight styles and bumper configurations. We carry specific panels to ensure your restoration stays era-correct:

• Vintage Beetle (1949–1967): We stock the correct "Wide Eye" and early-style fenders that define the classic look of early air-cooled Volkswagens.

• The Late Model Era (1968–1972): Find the high-quality steel panels designed for "Tombstone" style taillights, providing a perfect fit for your late-sixties or early-seventies project.

• 1973 & Later Models: We carry the specific fenders required for the larger "Elephant Foot" taillights found on the final years of North American production for both Standard and Super Beetles.

Restoration-Grade Quality Our fenders are sourced from industry leaders like EMPI, ensuring you receive panels that offer consistent metal thickness and accurate body lines. These are not thin, flimsy panels; they are robust steel components designed to provide a solid foundation for your bodywork and paint, ensuring a lasting and professional finish.
