    If they aren't TOO deep. If the fenders are very thick, you might run over them with a sander first, and knock down the high spots.

    Hard to answer w/o seeing them......but if they are thick enuf, I'd start with 100 grit and take it slow..........it shouldnt take much, ot those fenders are junk.....should come out of a good mold with very little distortion.Then I like Ecklers spray putty for fine tuning the finish prior to painting.
