I wonder what the fender material has to do with it since I never "just grab hold of it, yank in the direction you want and clamp it down". I use a spacer to support the fender where I want it to get the fender line I want (as long as the frame is not in the way). Is the use of spacers to adjust fit really beyond your comprehension, or are you being willfully obtuse?
You cannot use spacers to adjust the line of the curve of the fender. With plastic fenders you just pull the fender where you want it to be, with metal ones you have to adjust the curve by opening or closing the fender opening a bit. Yes, you can use spacers to fill a gross gap between the forward edge of the rear fender and the chain stay bridge but you don't have to be very accurate, you can pull the fender to where you want it and hold it in place with tension without doing any harm to the fender. Do that with aluminum fenders and they will crack.
As you say, is that "beyond your comprehension, or are you being willfully obtuse?"
