The front fenders are off.  The left one has some rust damage to the 
headlight region.  The rocker portion of that fender has rusted before and 
been repained with filler.

The right fender has a moderate amount of rust in the headlight area and the 
rocker portion is pretty well gone.

What are my options here?

I suppose Heritage fenders are an option, but at >$600 each, that is a lot 
of money.  I have heard unsubstanciated rumors that these are made with 
thinner gauge metal and that the detail is soft and that they don't fit 
well.  Yet the vendors all describe these as OEM fenders that fit well and 
are the same as the originals.Can anyone comment?

Sourcing used fender is a littlle problematic - these are going to be hard 
to find without rust.  I have seen some used fenders selling for all most as 
much money as the new ones. Commnets?

I think I have seen that the rocker area on the TR250 fenders can be 
purchased as a "clip". Looks like Moss in the EU used to have clips for the 
TR6 but now these seem to be NLA?  Commnets?

Fiberglass fenders are not an option for me on this car.

Any help would be appreciated!
