We get ours from Brian McGuigan, who was selling them at the National
this year, or can be contacted via http://www.bcnboats.co.uk/index.htm.
I have also seen a couple of online recommendations of his products:

I have just bought a new v shaped bow fender and long button
fender from a very nice chap in the Walsall area (Brian Mcguigan). I am
very impressed with the quality of the workmanship (which includes turks
head detailing).
He and his wife have a website if you are interested:
http://www.bcnboats.co.uk
I would recommend them !
