Hi Ian, I bought 2 repop fenders and I have to say I'm not that impressed with them. Overall they are OK and I will get them to fit but there are wholes that have to be opened out and even some in the wrong places. And the front end inserts are not welded in correctly. I'm not going to bother drilling them out and rewilding, I'll live with it, because the metal is much thinner than the originals and I'll end up blowing holes in it and doing the bodywork I was trying to avoid by buying them in the first place.
