You're right.They are what they are.You can pass on the car,buy it and put up with it,or spend money and change it to what you want.I wanted to convert a dual sidemount car to plain fenders years ago,I had a terrible time trying to trade off the front fenders.The left side wasn't bad,the pickup guys needed them,but I owned that riders side fender for years.A couple of years ago I had somebody come to me looking for a pair of plain front fenders.He was pulling the sidemounts off his roadster.I have a nice pair of fenders for a pickup project I have,and I traded him my plain left for his welled left.I dug my feet in,and would not trade off my right plain fender.He said I got him halfway home anyway.
