My thought would be to put a want ad in the Swap Meet for a pair of ORIGINAL front fenders. Even if they need a little work, they're probably a better choice than repops. They're out there.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Seriously thinking about trying that...you buy both sides and the issues are different side to side!

Tell us where you got them, so we can avoid the same trouble. What exactly is the problem with them. Dynacorn is supposed to have the best repros.
