Body Gurus, need some advise. I have 99% of all my body parts in near perfect condition. But my fender aprons are bothering me. There is surface rust , it's the pitting on the top where the hood rubbed that I don't like. I'm willing to clean these up , if I can't source out another pair. I called cruiser.net and they said usually most parts aprons will have the pitting. On one hand,I saw the aluminum aprons on-line. Willing to buy them. On the other hand,I just don't know if there's a filler that I can use that will make me feel confident enough that it will not crack or separate with constant opening and closing of the hood. I do have the rubber cushions that were supposed to be there. They will be installed once I figure this out. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance. The dog.
 
Fenders / Aprons

O.K. most fenders or should I say all fenders are pretty much the same on outside skin on the inside they have different mounts for Coil, Washer bottle etc.. aprons again pretty much the same I have some nice steel ones,,,Fenders I have a few also. Yes the aftermarket ones usually are CRAP.!look nice but rarely fit. I'm on west coast your on East coast shipping not cheap. Shipping might be cheaper than $80 an hour body shop charges to fix a bad fender.
