aftermarket front fenders

I am buying fenders, I have heard goodmark fenders fit good, and I have heard that Goodmark fenders are manufactured by Gordon. But I have also been told that the Gordon fenders don't fit good around the Grill. I here that CYL&R fenders fit great, has anyone used these on a 69-72. Thanks for the help

Thumbs down Wish I used originals!!!!!!

I put Gordons on my72 4x4. And they fit like CR%#p around the grill. I had to "hog out" the bottom of the outer grill to get it to come close (still at least a 1/4" away from reveal in fender). I WOULD have been REALLY P!SS$D if I had just spent 500 on a new grill.!!!!! After they are on , no one ever has said anything about the fit, but, its not a show truck either.

I am located in Canada, so it's a little far. Thats why there is no good used ones around.

On all aftermarket fenders my bodyman makes all the holes bigger he claims its the only way he can line them up to suit him.

Thumbs down

I have a Gordon fender on the front of my '72 that the previous owner put on. It also has about a 1/4 inch gap. I can post a pic if you'd like. Andrew
