    Hi everyone, I was recently looking into getting new fenders for my 73 Comet. I found new ones for model years 70-72. I have already done a small bumper conversion on my 73. Will the 70-72 fenders work on my 73? Is the only difference the cutout for the stone gaurd? Thanks guys.

    Yes they will work.

    I have some used fenders if you would want to drive over....or meet me in Columbus, Ohio at the All Ford Swap Meet.

    Thanks Craig. I took the trim off my old ones and ground off the rivets. Besides a hole in one and tiny pit holes near the marker light on the other they're in good shape. But I saw Melvins sells new ones that would save my the body work and filling the trim holes. Thinking about them, still trying too see if can get there for swap setup. Thanks again.
