Re: Fender welt

You need to go out and measure what you need to put it where you plan to. I don't even think they put any from the factory on most of the fender.

Re: Fender welt

best info I can find is Classic Industries has a 25' roll - cut to length for $25.00. Hope that is a starting point. As Brian said, you will just have to measure what you need where you need it.

Re: Fender welt

I used welt on my fenders last year when installing. One roll from classic industries 55-59 was enough. I cut the roll in half and had roughly an extra foot for each side
