Default BB front fender lowering kit

Anyone install the front fender lowering kit? I just installed it on a spare fender I bought because Im not convinced the fender will be as strong after cutting the oem steel reinforcing plate.
It would seem that now the bolts only go through the sheetmetal and will eventually crack from stress.
Has anyone racked up a lot of miles and are they holding up?

I bolted in the NCB kit with the chrome screws about 12000 miles ago. No cracks in mine yet.
