I just did this with a 71 convertible: Tip---try to make sure the hood latch spacing is correct...I put the hood on later (didn't test fit) and it was really a PITA to get the hood to latch up smoothly...there is really very limited options in latch placement and adjustment...👍

Thanks!

Use some tapping screws to bring both panels together

Nice work!!! I have to do my front apron on my super beetle. It does not look very fun.

[@MadStiles]

Thanks! Its intimidating but not to bad

[@SladesVWBeetle]

Madstiles I was looking at my front apron, the super beetle is a little more awkward. Yes it does look intimidating to me I’m not very good at fabricating, and lining things up. But I guess I will learn. LOL

Nice job man 🤙

[@MadStiles]

Thanks buddy!

Do you have any videos on replacing the front inner fender? not going the bondo route.

[@MadStiles]

Sorry but no I didn't have to replace mine.

[@65vwbug87]

@@MadStiles No worries. the bottom half wasnt to bad, but it was in a accident and the original molding was warped after I sanded it all down, so I said screw it i will just buy that whole new piece.

[@tuneuptony3679]

Any video on how to replace the entire front clip including a pillars with dash and heater channels?

[@MadStiles]

No sorry I haven't done that much yet
