Hi Michael,
The flange on the forward end of the rear fenders is secured to the "B"
pillar with 1/2" long 10/32 countersink Phillips screws with lock washers
and hex nuts.
The screws are countersunk into the fender flange sufficiently deeply to
ensure that the allow trim panels do not "ride up" on them.
If you have to drill the holes for these screws careful to check that they
are not directly under the positions of the self tapping screws that secure
the allow trim panels.
At the fenders the shrouds are actually held in position with rivets for
the most part as the fender fasteners also pass through them from inside
the inner body panels and into the "speed nuts" clipped to the fender
flange.
Just rear of the door there is also a 1/4" UNF countersunk screw that goes
through the steel inner panel, passes through the shroud and then the
fender flange and into a tapped plate up inside the fender.

Rear wing (I think that is fender in American) is fastened to B pillar =
by sixteen (eight each side) No 10 UNF x =C2=BD=E2=80=9D countersunk =
pozi screws, with plain washer, spring washer and nut on the back.

=20

Rear wing is fastened to the sill by four (two each side) No 10 UNF x =
5/8=E2=80=9D pan head pozi screws, with the same hardware on the back.

=20

All wing screws fastening into spring nuts are the special ACME thread =
ones.  However there are three =C2=BC=E2=80=9D UNF bolts in the forward =
three top wing holes, all inserted from under the wing.  One of these =
(the front one) is screwed into a tapped plate.  The others on my car =
(BJ7) are screwed into captive nuts welded to the inner wing.  BJ7 & BJ8 =
need this captive nut since the drainage channel makes this area =
inaccessible.  However earlier cars may use nuts and washers since =
access is better.

=20

Front wings have ACME thread bolts in all spring nuts, which are all =
holes in the top and front wing flanges, but shorter ones in the holes =
under the headlamp.  Front wings are attached to the sills by three =
=C2=BC=E2=80=9D UNF X =C2=BE=E2=80=9D long bolts each side, with nuts =
and spring and plain washers inside.

=20

The front wings are secured to the A pillars by the appropriate number =
of No 6 x 3/8=E2=80=9D long self tappers.

=20

Hope this helps
