OP - Have you considered plastic fenders?
I have high quality ones that are durable, require no lower eyelets to mount (although this bike has them on the rear, should these ones ever give up the ghost) and they keep me dry and less weight than metal ones.
The back one looks goofy because I have modified it but still keeps me dry. Running 43mm tires. I know SKS Bluefels are much wider. These are from Portland Design Works. Got them in a trade or somehting, I don't remember....
