'55 fender question

Guys, I'm new to this forum, so I hope you can help me. I'm doing some work on a '55 F100 and would like to know if anyone reproduces ( not sure what to call it) the part of the front fenders that is spot welded on the very front of the fenders and that the air deflectors bolt to. Hope you can understand what I am trying to describe here.
The rest of the fender is in good shape. I'm hoping someone makes this part separate from the fender. It's going to challenge my fabrication abilities if I have to make these work.

Those parts are reproduced in order to make the new re-popped fenders but have never seen them sold by anyone.

Thanks for the reply 56panelford. I thought that was probably the case.

You might try talking to one of the vendors, maybe that is something they would consider bringing in as a repair panel..
