I found the instructions:
So I conclude I have them installed upside down; I'll change that tonight.

Correct. When it breaks you need to replace it. Mine lasted about a year. I think I got a couple spares for $10. I still like the fenders and just bought another set for a different bike. I ride fairly fast over some rough pavement so it’s possible I’m tough on fenders. I switched to pdw after breaking a couple SKS longboards. Always seems to happen in the middle of winter.
