fender recomendation

Hey guys wanted some advice on fenders for my 75 k20. The rust is getting the better of the two front fenders and I wanted to get a set to have for when I decide to fix the rust on the whole truck and get it repainted. Would it be best to look for good used gm fenders at the junkyard or does anyone make a decent aftermarket that fits well (prob not but I thought I would ask). Besides that I guess fixing my current ones or paying some $ for the nos gm ones is the only other option.

Re: fender recomendation

personally i would look for used fenders first. Ive never used aftermarket metal but ilve always heard bad things.

Ok, looks like the local pick n pull charges 60 a fender so for 120 I can have a decent used gm set hopefully.

Re: fender recomendation

Let us know what you get for $60 in your neck of the woods. Even here I have not seen any fenders in the junkyards (or on running trucks, for that matter) that were not dented. I would think most would be rusted in your territory.
