Default Fender Trim?

I have a 1991 Grand Marquis GS. I bought the car and it was a rust pit the only reason I considered it was because it had only 36k on it, and as my first car I had my eye on an old Towncar or Grand Marquis. After a summers worth of body work, a week of wet sanding and paint she looked like new, well almost, I still needed to get a new vinyl roof and some missing trim. I assumed the roof would be the hard part but I was wrong. The car is done with only one thing missing, that being a set of wheel well opening trim. I have ordered it from aftermarket suppliers that claim it will fit, however it seems that the part was designed without looking at the car, and the dealers a no-go, even the body shop cant get it, so I am willing to pay some good money to anyone who could get me a set of 4. if you have a junk car with good trim or know of any place that makes reproductions I would be greatful to hear from you. It has been just over a year and this is the only thing not done on the car. I am out of New England. Any help is appreciated.

check this site and see if they can get it. it's another dealer, but they have it listed. If the dealers up there said its' a discontinued item, then you'll have to source the parts out of a salvage yard or find someone who can and then ship them to you.

also check automatrix for the parts. These are for an 88, but should fit the 91. I could be mistaken on that though.

Thanks, there are not many scrapyards around were I am so I wanted to use that as a last resort, besides NH is the home of rusted cars so if i found them here they are probably gone, ill try the 88s they should fit if they are the right part.

Yeah i am still in search of a set of 4 because all i can find that is in stock is the front pieces, if you know of anyone who may have some or a scrapyard near NH that a lot of your friends go to it would be much appreciated.
