I am in the middle of my frame-off resto and have come to reattach both front inner fenders. I cleaned the driver's side and glued it back on with no problems, looks great! I move over to the passenger's side and cleaned off all the old adhesive and there is a 1 inch + gap at the bottom. When I tried to squeeze them together the fender distorts because there is so much pressure. Obviously the inner fender had been replaced before albeit incorrectly. Thanks Bubba!! Anyways, here is what I have. This picture is from the front looking rearward:
And this pic is looking forward:
How can this be fixed? I do not want to completely remove the inner fender it is still attached at the top. I thought about cutting a slit in the inner fender and bonding the edge to the fender and then glassing the slit together. Any other ideas or suggestions? Thanks, Mike.
