Had the problem with screws coming loose. Tried locktite and tightened screws up tight. Bad move. The plastic around the screw hole cracked and broke. So I fiberglassed it nice and solid. Guess what - the next hole over did the same thing. If you notice, the fender opening where the screws go is recessed, but is about 1/4-1/2 inch away from the slide out where the fender goes. So if you tighten the screw, it puts pressure on the plastic and breaks. Guess I will fiberglass the next one and maybe put some spacer washers behind it. It is still under warranty but I am on the road and warranty expires in about 4 1/2 weeks. If 2nd patch doesn't work, I will try warranty.
