How much did just for the rear arches run you?

Any modding necessary to get the 500 fenders to fit on the front?

The front fenders are bolt on, though the cladding in front of the door also needs to be replaced with 500e items & the side skirts took quite a lot of modifying for them to match up with the cladding.

The rear arches were expensive... Not sure exactly because I have not added up the bills.

I followed that build while it was happening, and always thought why not finish it right, and make the 500 conversion.

I see the new owner is going for turbo's, maybe the next owner will think about a 500CE conversion...
