Default Replacing front fenders?

On my 92 Blazer the front fenders have some rust behind the fender flares and I am about to replace the fenders.

Looking at various online sources I have found fenders and inner fenders but no one who has that part of sheet metal that goes between the inner fender and the fender. It is some sort of extension part.

Does anyone know a good source for this part?


Thanks

The inner fender structure that is welded to the fender? Most fenders on this side of the pond come already with this welded in. Not sure how they do it over there but I can't see it being different.

Ok so you're saying that this part is already attached to the fender.

On my cars original fenders it looks like it was a separate piece. Pictures of the replacement fenders are not good enough so i can see.


Thanks, I'll check it out.

I have a set of fenders off a truck if you would like pictures. If you look under the wheel well it does indeed look like its bolted in. If you look at it from under the hood its all welded.
