Keep checking ebay, Journey With Olds, and the other usual sources. Expect to pay well into four figures for an NOS set.

I have one side, pretty sure it's a right. Located in CT if that is geographically sensible for you. These aren't all that rare. Mine is in nice shape, stored inside, has part sticker still on it, no box. PM me if you are interested. If you are located far away, see if someone else chimes in as shipping just adds more $$ that might be avoidable.

The aftermarkets aren't terrible but definitely not the same fit as OE. Edges not quite shaped right, etc. I've used them both & would always select OE if given the choice even though they are more expensive.

I replaced both fenders on my 71 this last winter. One OE (repaired) and a goodmark repo I found locally for $150. Both went on OE a little easier but it was also the second one on so I had a better idea of what to do. My car is a driver and I would buy a repo again. NOS are better for high end correct restos IMO. Look around find good used then maybe repos. I looked around for a couple of years found both for about $400 total. Looked at alot of junk too.
