Brian,
Do you have pics of your fenders? What is wrong with them? Tears? Rust?
I thought mine were toast. I got a body hammer and dolly and pounded out the dents.
The passenger side was rolled under. I was able to pound that out too.
Welding up a tear can be done. I posted on rip and tear repair. There is a a great description on how to weld up a tear. It would probably work for welding in a patch as well.
I found that post...take a look.
