Front Fender Damage, Need input
Friday, June 10, 2005 7:47 AM
Hello everyone,

My 2000 Z24 got hit in the parking lot today at work and got a dent on the side of the passenger front fender. I am going to get it fixed. Does anybody know how much this is going to cost or know of a good place to take it in the Minneapolis area?

I've got pictures, but I need to find a server to throw them on. I will post them ASAP.

Depends on the extent of the damage. Some dents will pop out, some will need work, and if its bad enough, replacing the fender.

i just paid 55 dollars for a brand new aftermarket stamped steel fender. It fits just like stock, and is primerd and ready for paint. You could prbably get a shop to paint it for like 50 buck s and install it yourself.

Hey Guys, thanks for all the responses.

Well I took it to a number of autobody shops yesterday and got estimates. The lowest one came to 634 dollars. This morning, I decided that if I was going to bring it in, I had nothing to lose by trying to fix it myself.

I was able to get the fender looking pretty good by pounding out the dents. I still need to get some touch up paint and fix a few scratches.

I'd still go with the prepainted aftermarket. check pershingautobodyparts03 's auctions on ebay. They don't have an auction for the pre-painted fender up now but they will soon I'm sure.
