2003 Fender Removal
2003 Fender Removal
Hi guys,
My daughter backed into my left front fender and I need to R&R it. Are there any DIY instructions on this? Is it a straight unbolt and bolt on?
I assume I need to remove the front bumper and inner wheel well liner as well.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Mike

If ya have previous experience with things like this, it always helps.
While I'm unsure of any specific "DIY"s on the procedure, the removal of a front fender should be basically the same as most any other car.
Your assumptions will lead ya in the right direction, IMO. It's just a matter of getting to all the retaining hardware. Once ya have a replacement fender, you'll have to align everything up.....which is the most difficult part of the job other than matching paint.
Is there any other damage besides just the minor fender-bender ? Sometimes when the mounting areas become damaged, it makes things much more difficult to fit the replacement fender on.
