Germans and Norwegians do some interesting mods to these c4s. Beltline delete looks one million times better. That's why I did one. Look for the thread on here if you want. I get compliments all the time and it's still layed up in primer. As for the 96 fender. Yes I am grafting the 96 style fenders onto my 90 style body. The beltline is grafted into these later fenders which I'm guessing is the "issue" you are referring to. Fenderettes? It's a pain in the @ss but it's definitely do-able. Just be sure to use Evercoat bonding fiberglass to plastic. Or make a mold and just make one solid fiberglass replacement. Good luck!
