Ive been looking around for aluminum or plastic inner fenders and all i can find is for a 2nd gen.
Do they even make anything other than steel for a 3rd gen?

I was thinking about making some custom aluminum ones myself... But decided against it since the only metal shaping tools i have are my hands and a hammer, thought that might be a little messy.

Classic Industries has them $100 each. Not sure who makes them, but I'm sure they are cheaper elsewhere.

Mine are custom made out of aluminum. They were kept simple on the design and held down by stainless screws for easy removal when I need to do any major work on the motor.

U.S Body Source gets $299 a pair for theirs. That other place (up22) sells stuff that I wouldn't run, and my car looks like crap! I've installed their parts for friends, and by the time you finish repairing and trying to make the junk fit, you would have been better off buying the good stuff in the first place.
