I agree 99 to Life - this hunt went pretty fast as I stopped by Trick Trucks and Rods in Ohio to pick up a few parts a couple weeks ago, mentioned my desire for a fender to owner Tom and he had these coming in. He described them and I agreed to buy them sight unseen. CFO (wife) mailed a check out right away and I picked them up this week. I paid way too much and I am way OK with that... I saved the time of the search and Tom makes some profit so he can stay in business. Plus, I like Tom...a win for both of us.

We are going to run the green fenders on the purple / blue Burb...all with the currently popular patina look.
