Fenders are dirt cheap. (Unless you get fiberglass) I payed under 100 Canadian for both fenders on a 91

I'd just buy new ones.

I saw a pic someplace of a toy fiberglass hood for a '90-'95 with a 3rd gen. runner scoop molded into it and now I can't find the site, so I figured while we were on the subject of fiberglass, I'd ask.
Thanks

I would opt for replacement fenders too. You might be able to even find the same color from a junk yard try www.car-part.com check your area.
