Lightbulb Looking for body panels.

Someone hit my car and I have no idea who. Tried checking the cameras at work. Anywho, my passenger fender got damaged and I want to have it replaced.

My question is where can I get an OEM fender unpainted so I can just take it to the body shop and have them paint it? Is it even a good idea?

Don't think that's a very good idea as the shop would need to make several tests to match the color, especially ASM, and they might even want to blend in the fender. Maybe if you left the car with them they might be able to match it up, but I cartainly wouldn't count on the exact match.

Thats what I figured. A shop next to my house quoted me at $1100 to fix, repaint and blend it all.
