Even the Rover fenders require a bit of tweaking to make them fit - but I
agree with Carl about the cheaper ones. Regarding the difference between
GT and roadster fenders: the roadster fenders have a hole to accommodate
the windshield piller. The GT fender rather is cut out to go around the
piller. I suppose a roadster fender could be adapted to fit a GT, but why
do it?
If you buy a used GT fender, check it carefully around the bottom for
previous rust repair, and around the headlight area for rust and collision
repair. I swear most of the old MGBs I've dissassembled have bondo around
the headlight buckets. It would be best if you saw the fender off the
donor car before agreeing to buy it - then you can see evidence of repairs
from the inside.
