The etrailer brand Trailer Fender you referenced, part # HP29VR, is designed to be welded on, but some customers have drilled through the small lip on the fender when installing. We do have another option that may work for you.

I recommend the etrailer brand Trailer Fender With Backing, part # HP36VR. This fender, like the fender you referenced, is a single-axle fender made of 16 gauge steel, and is designed for 14 to 15 inch wheels. I have attached a product review video for this fender you can check out.
