Patrick,

First off, great to hear that they did a good job. I’m sure others will have 
suggestions here. Without seeing the bike it is hard to say. My intuition tells 
me it is in the right place to - 

A: ward off spray coming off the top of the wheel. There can still be 
significant material leaving the wheel between 12 and 2 oclock, as well as 
traveling up the inside of the fender. Add in forward momentum and both can and 
up hitting the rider. 

and 

B: prevent the fender from catching on curbs, rocks, roots, etc when the front 
wheel drops down past them. 

Your fender may, or may not need the additional stay in the front, or 
attachment to a rack if you use one. 

You might consider adding a long flexible mudflap onto the bottom of the fender 
if you desire more coverage there. A flexible flap would not undo the work of A 
or B.

Best of luck!
Jason
