trailer fenders

[superdave013]

Fack the money, just get 'em. S.S. is the only way to go!
Here are mine right after install. Yep, had to pay full pop for them.

this has turned into a quest....so far:
prices are all over the place....
102inchx9inch fenders
Arrow trailers -Ontario bare metal 71.50 each
Competitive trailers bare metal $175/pair
$90 to paint white
$500/pair chrome
Extreme trailers bare metal $57 each
$292 each painted
$516 each stainless
Kustom trailers $775/pair stainless
$300/pair painted
Trailrite trailers bare metal $95
South Florida trailers (ad on OSO board) makes all aluminum trailers and has a fender rolled out of diamond plate for $125 each ...looks interesting but i would have to see one in person...
UFP does not do fenders...only disc brakes/actuators, etc....
i am now obsessed with finding a distributor or manufacturer that will sell direct....

hey 25elimn8r....
it looks like your trailer is also a competitive..mine is very similar...not to question but...
are your sure your fenders are polished stainless or are they chrome??
i called competitive and they said they don't do stainless...only chrome...
just curios
thanks

I don't know for a fact. i think I remember the previous owner said they were stainless. They look to be stainless. There is no sign of rust. The previous owner did some upgrades to the trailer before I bought it(new rims and tires and I think he said fenders too)

How about applying some diamond plate over your existing fenders? Prime the sh*t out of 'em first so they don't rust underneath. There must be a metal shop that could bend some 3/16" to match the curves. They'd be shiny, custom and non skid.

I'm not one to cry about price when I am buying parts. But the price tag on SS fenders is WAY up there. I am in the market for SS, but that is a bill I don't want to pay. OUCH. Dave, did you really pay full pop for those fenders? Come clean..
