I found on my AHH with 45mm Bertoud aluminum fenders that there was an
occasional vibration between the front fender and the Silver brake. A small
piece of inner tube glued I used Barge cement) to the top of the fender at the
contact point solved the issue nicely and you can't even see it.

So I'm thinking of putting metal fenders on my Hilsen. I have
Berthouds on my Rambouillet and really like them. With my Hilsen I'm
thinking of putting on some hammered Honjos (700x45). I won't be
attaching the front fender to a rack and I'm wondering if it will
vibrate a lot. Isn't this a problem with Honjos sometimes? It isn't an
issue with my Berthouds but I think that's because they are steel as
opposed to aluminum.
I currently have SKS fenders with leather flaps on my Hilsen but they
just aren't long enough in the front. I should mention that a coworker
picked up an extra rear SKS fender, trimmed it and mounted on the
front. It seems to be working well for him.
I live in Portland and fenders are essential. This isn't entirely
about bike fashion.
