For this mod, I don't think this would be suitable for post 67 standard Beetle (the ones with smaller headlights) and even less suitable for Super Beetle.
For the level of difficulty, it would be a lot of trouble doing it on a steel fender. I'd rather do this on a fiberglass fender, I have no metal working skills but have good skills in FG, my prensent project is restoring a Jeep CJ7 that has used fiberglass tub and one piece front end, both were damaged when bought and are now almost completely repaired.
I guess it wouldn't be impossible for me to create a FG fender mold 2 inch wider with the extension starting from the attaching point of the fender meaning there would be no extra lip on the fender.This would be a great project!!
