There are 3 types of fenders available out there for about 100+shipping.
vis racing is one of companies that makes them. laser, z3 and bullet. http://www.6gc.net/parts/533 http://www.6gc.net/parts/532 http://www.6gc.net/parts/534 You can also put custom inserts but trust me for amount of work... its cheaper to go with pre-fabs and they will look better too.

Any carbon fibre part out there needs trimming. For z3 fenders you need to break off the right angle bracket. On a stock fender it attaches fender to where back of driver's front wheel is.
