I replaced the fenders on my '68 and the only replacements available lacked the 
finger notch. I beat one in, but it was an amateur job. I'm not much of a body 
man.

The Beetle is completely different, because that flap is not on the fender. 
Someone would have to beat in a notch, or weld in a part from a '68. Could the 
whole front "clip" have been replaced?
