I think I would like to buy new steel fenders, treat them with proper galvanizing or chemical rust preventative.

My old steel fenders were from a sunburnt California car, and once brought into the upper midwest dampening zone, they have already started to form rust bubbles, despite sandblasting and soaking them with rust treatment and coverage.

On boats they use a thing called coal-tar-epoxy, which sound pretty nasty, but is probably the most effective.

Why do I want steel? IDK, because. They are OEM parts. Fiberglas seems like a cheat.

Where can I get them already imported into the US? Yes I know they are about $600 each. (I figure I can sell the old ones for a couple hundred before they get too bad.)
