A good chrome house has the expertise to do that for you. If your bumpers are decent save them and buy some beaters to have done. You will spend about $200 to $300 each!

you can also get some carbon fiber or fiberglass fenders as well... but if you want to keep the chrome do all the prep work you can save a lil money before taking to the chromers

Kind of hard to tell from the photo (too much of a quartering angle for a good view of the wheels), but it looks like they might be Panasport wheels on the red 240? MSA, Vic Brit, and a variety of others carry them. Price seems to be all over the place.

I ended up getting a fiberglass airdam from MSA for my 280 exactly as you described, with the holes for brake cooling. My brother uses an identical one on his '78 and went as far as making ducts to hook up to them to actually have duct-cooled brakes. I haven't gotten that far with mine yet...

Well, they're not cheap ($1100 for four), but here's one link to the Panasport wheels:

and, here's a selection of the airdams:

Do shop around, though. I don't know about the airdams, but there've been a lot of posts on here that those wheels can be had cheaper elsewhere. MSA was just the one I knew of that had a picture I could link to.

I did get my airdam from them, though, and it's a great piece. Fits well, fair price, quality fiberglass work, and looks better than the urethane one my car had on it when I bought it. Or better yet, you could buy my old one! Just kidding. It needs work. One of these days I'll clean it up and put it on The Marketplace, but I'd rather work on getting my car finished first. If I could get out of work today...
