Need width of challenger rear wheel opening lips
« on: December 09, 2015 - 03:39:40 PM »
I am trying to find out how wide the rear quarter wheel opening lip is. It likely changes throughout the arc. My came came with the low quarters having been replaced. The work was done in the 90's. I don't know what brand they are but the work seems to have been done well but the car was never completed.
The problem is the quarter to inner welds were completed but the lip is quite wide. I will be using wheel trim as this is an SE car. Does anyone have some info on this?

Thanks,
John

Roadman, is that 7/8" on each end and 1" most of the middle?
