In order:
Luke at US Coach -800-922-0204
Mohawk
MCI

Luke can tell you about availability and cost. He will be more expensive than MCI but you get the right parts and the installation help if needed.
And no, I don't get a commission from Luke. >:(

I have a set of rubber fenders that fit my 102 C3 that are in fair condition do not know if the would fit an 8. I bought a replacement set from another member for my bus.  On the subject of fiberglass, I also have a complete new set of R&M fenders for the 102C3 that I elected not to use along with a rear bumper cover, I would be most happy to see a fellow busnut be able to use any of these items.

"the 8 was not equiped with rubber fenders on the drive and tag"

Can someone verify this? My bus looks like it came with them.

On the 8 and the 9 rubber fenders on the drive and tag were a option the front fenders were standard equipment, they look a little naked without the rear fenders huh

good luck

yup, both my MC8 coach and MC8 parts coach have rubber fenders on the drive/tag surround.

Both from different first line fleets, the parts coach being a former dogbus.

FWIW

happy coaching!

Did you try Luke @ US Coach?  http://usc17.tripod.com/ (http://usc17.tripod.com/)
MCI?     http://www.mcicoach.com/parts/parts.htm (http://www.mcicoach.com/parts/parts.htm)

OK If you tried both of them and had no luck try Sam Caylor @ http://www.caylorsupply.com/bus-parts.html (http://www.caylorsupply.com/bus-parts.html)

If no luck their R & M makes fiberglass ones.
