Good junk yard in NY or Connecticut States?

I need a front left and right fender for a 90 240 (silver, preferrably).

Does anyone know a good junk yard in those two States.

FCP Groton is excellent. I'm not so sure about the Scan-Tech fender though. I've had mixed experience with Scan-Tech, some of their stuff is fine, some other stuff is junk. The one aftermarket 240 fender I've encountered is noticeably more flimsy than the real thing, somewhat ill fitting, and lacks the cutout for the side turn signal repeater.

Fenders are easy to find around here, but shipping one would be tough.

In addition to checking with wrecking yards, visit craigslist.com in the various possible cities / areas.

Search under the category "auto parts" for "Volvo;" I am sure somebody is sellng what you need.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did found both fenders and close by, except they are gray instead of silver. Oh well, I guess I'll have to have them painted.

You'd probably want to have them painted anyway unless you managed to find them from a car of roughly the same age and weather exposure as yours. Paint fades, you don't notice by how much until you stick on a fender from another car. You'd have to have replacement aftermarket fenders painted too of course, they come primed.
