Fleetwood Fender Probs.

Fleetwood owners, check your fenders at the front wheels and see if the pop rivets are secure. My HR has both front fenders now held together with tie wraps till I can get it to the body shop. They are all cracked and being held with Gorilla glue and tie wraps.
Seems the little pop rivets pull through the fiberglass an then the fenders flop around and break like mine did. No I do not go over 60 so speed was not the problem, it is the rivets are so small they just get popped.
If somebody passes you and is pointing down better stop and check, plus carry a bag of tie wraps.
