s13 s13.4 metal fender fitment help!!

I have OEM s14 kouki fenders that I'm looking to get fitted on my s13 vert, but I need some help. I've seen it done before without having the huge bulge between the fender and the door. Can anyone recommend a shop in socal that can fit the fenders nice. Or if anyone has done this and would like to fit mine, I got $$$$. Hit me up. Im located in Irvine.

this is how they look just sitting on the car, nothing is bolted. You can see how much needs to be done to make them fit correctly.

I'm pretty sure you have to use the rear section of the s13 fender with the s14 front section, and you have to weld them together. IIRC

Yeah I think that's the only way to do it... weld together S13/s14 fenders.

Just going by the pictures, I honestly don't see how that will "fit" without metal work being done.

^ I thought so too, with some trimming on the bottom. Of course it's way off. I might have to end up getting some s13 metal fenders and do a cut and shut since I had fiberglass before.
