Default plastic or metal fenders on the trailer?

Lost another plastic fender to another blown tire [insert lecture on
changing tires at 6yrs]. I can buy metal fenders locally for like
$18. Or somewhere I need to find a source for the plastic ones for my
old 1979 Komet trailer.

Who sells the plastic ones? (who supports Komets in the US?)

Is there any downside to switching to metal fenders over the plastic
ones?
Was wondering if there is an advantage to the frangible / tear away
quality of the plastic ones or metal should be fine.

Hey it is cold and rainy, good time for a trailer discussion and I
need an answer this week anyway.
