im still gonna look for a daruma for a final solution though, as A) thats super slick, and B) i dont want to have to fap around with having to realign everything with the third hand i dont have if i wanna unbolt the caliper while out on a ride for whatever of many reasons.. and i guess C), the fender is now rotated 1" further aft on the wheel, so presumably 1" less effective

Ah yes...that's as it should be I think. Snap a pic. Further aft helps at the bottom for foot spray.
Fenders rarely just bolt right on a bike, but when they do it's great. Usually a fair amount of work and puzzle solving ensues. Over the years I have seen countess customers "give it a shot" then come back and say.....I should have just paid you guys to do it in the first place.
