recommend a fender set and a rack for touring

I've recently obtained an old, but solid Trek 520 for touring purposes. I'd like to add a fender and rear rack (and also a front rack in the future).

I'm looking at these Velo hammered alloyed fenders

Any other nice alloyed fenders I can be looking at? These seem tricky to install based on the reviews. I like the look of metal fenders.

Also, like the look of this Nitto rack, but it's pricey. If you can recommend another touring rack that is chromoly, let me know:

Thanks!

yeah, I think I see the issues with them now and I'm inclined to go with something other than metal.

I have a brand new set of SKS P50 fenders that I want to sell. Didn't notice the size was wrong until I had already destroyed the package getting them open.
