Can you post the results of the fender install? What tires will you plan to
use these huge fenders? I'm very curious to see how it looks!
Cheers,

If you want to support a bike shop instead of a hardware store (not that we
don't like hardware stores!), Analog sells spacers and stainless bolts in
all sorts of lengths for this kinda application. Aluminum spacers are
gunna be way better than a cork, which is too compressible / springy for
"My “local hardware store” is a totally indifferent Home Depot ..."
Ouch that's rough. There are at least two hardware stores in my town that
have a nice selection of metric stainless steel hardware. Nylon spacers too.

re-radius them to fit the 26" wheels then shoe-horn them into the frame
Jim, Wine cork & whatever can work & work very well; I've made spacers out
of a variety of things, but what I will suggest in this instance is
something different.
Try threading in a long screw, but instead of a cork or spacer, install a
fairly stiff spring!
The spring will keep the fended in
