I have a 1995 S2 and I need a front fender. Will a front fender off of a 1999 S3 fit??

Yes, it'll fit, but it's a too little wide and you'll have to grind the lower mounting holes out a little bit and put fender washers on them like this:





It's also a pain in the butt to mount, since you have to bend the crap out of it to get it between the fork legs unless you remove the front wheel.

I just drilled a couple of holes and zip-tied the speedo cable to the fender.

Zip-ties are the new duct tape...

Where did you buy the front fender?
I have a 2002 S3 with a cracked one and no auto body shop wants to fix it
