I am not sure how you are using the zip ties, but I find they are not reliable for holding parts together.

If the zip ties are used to hold the fender onto the forks or hold them in place, find something else. Maybe you could use some metal hose clamps.

If your front fender comes off and binds up your front wheel when you are tavelling at high speed, you could be in for the crash of a lifetime.
