Re: ebay fenders

I have similar fenders on my car from NAPA they are aftermarket and the fit is not the greatest but still not bad. You may have to coress or tweak them by hand to get a decent fit but not bad for the price.

Re: ebay fenders

don't do it.....with some patience and persistence you'll find an oem piece at a decent price. I just removed an aftermarket fender that came with mine and it's 3/16" shorter than oem. It doesn't sound like much, but when you're trying to line these pieces up it drives you nuts. I can't even give it away!

Re: ebay fenders

Mine were over $100 a piece so maybe I got better quality lol. I looked and looked for factory fenders here and could not find a decent set at all. They are all rotted out below the skirt.
