Wondering if anyone would have or know where to order some front fenders?

My body guy shot me a pic of mine, and suggests I find new ones.

Any help would be great.

So, first i want to thank Mike for doing all he could, but alas, the fenders aren't worthy of selling.

I'm pleading, to anyone who has a set, I would love to buy em. I don't mind shipping.

Right now I'm scouring the interwebs, searching. So far i've found some aftermarket, but they have designs that i'm not the fondest of.

I am current in a hotel room in Toronto. I have meetings all day tomorrow, then I head back to Ottawa.. I can meet and pickup in the GTA tomorrow evening. I don't care if I don't get back to Ottawa till 3am, I really want fenders.

Thanks in advance.

I'll go to the wreckers here and see what the mx3 looks like and report back. On the way back drive thru Brighton and check out Taffs, he usually has a few in there.

Ok, I went to Sidney's and every MX3 had bashed fenders with the exception of one red one. The passenger fender was solid underneath where they rust but at the height of the wheel well is rust but not so bad as it can't be fixed. I believe they'd sell it for $20 removed for you.
I spoke to some people who said there's a few MX3s in Taffs in Brighton but of course there you have to remove them yourself.

Thanks dan!

I'm still in a meeting so the chances of hitting it on the way home is slim. I am in trento on the weekend. Can you check if they are open saturday? I will grab them then

There number is 613-392-5201 Sidney auto wreckers, you need to call them and ask to have the passenger side removed from the red MX3 'automatic' by itself on the north side of the lot. They're usually open till around 01:00pm

The drivers side one is rust free but dented as if the car was side swiped. Its is still fixable however???

Ok, at great expense and taxing my tight personal schedule I went to Taffs Auto Recycling in Brighton. There's a 93 MX3 teal with two perfect front fenders just waiting to be removed. $13 each, he does not remove that's up to you.
No thanks needed just open a whole sale accunt for me at Canada Computers and we'll call it even. :wink:

I'm warning you up front, Clappy expects delivery. :lol:
If he buys my ZE you can throw them on my trailer when I 'deliver' the ZE to him. :P Oh and I have FREE black seats for him as well.

LOL Dan..

I found a set here in Ottawa, and they are in decent shape. The rust concern is on the bottom of the fender where it bolts to the car. If they are in nice shape, then i'm very interested!

I am down that way on the weekend of the 30th. Might even be able to make a day trip before then.
