I was looking at http://www.advance-auto-parts-online.com and saw they have plastic fenders and metal fenders. The plastic ones are alot cheeper.
Was this a yearly change thing? I know some treps got metal and some plastic, whats the reason behind this. YB or Otto etc?

I can't see it making much difference. I'd rather have the metal ones.

The 1st gens all came from the factory with plastic fenders. The metal ones are used as replacement parts, after accidents for example. Thanks to a deer, i have one metal and one plastic. If i would have known there were plastic ones still out there, i would have asked for one. Not sure why you would want metal, especially in an area prone to rock chips, animals, salt, other people's doors, and rust. Definately go plastic.
