Question About Shapeways "Goose" Peterbilt Parts

[Tommy R]

I'm in the process of making my King Hauler look a bit more like a Pete 359. I pretty much just plan to replace the grill/headlights, but am also considering replacing the fenders. I know nothing about these fenders, but are these designed to bolt to the cab of the KH cab after the stock fenders are cut away? Any feedback on these would be much appreciated!

The fenders are really meant to bolt to their Pete hood. The stock King Hauler hood can be cut off with one straight cut then the Shapeways hood either be glued on or some guys have made a custom hood hinge. That being said anything is possible, you might be able to cut your King Hauler off at the rivet line, make new hood sides and bolt these fenders where you want them.
