IIRC ASC cut the bottom of the fender off. The Fender is the same as a coupe, just cut... I have been told that they added a bracket somehow to the bottom of the fender... I want to think there are two layers down there and they may have attached it to the inner layer...

Yeah I know that they cut it and I don't think its any more complicated than that but i need documentation for the insurance company or photo proof if someone has because they are not too keen on just hacking up a coupe fender

Re: 1989 IROC Vert Frame

I just replaced the left front fender on my 89. Had to cut 4 inches off the fender next to the door. The bracket is the one that attaches the fender to the inside of the door jamb. Sorry, took some pics but none show what your're looking for.
