So I got my car when I was 17 and I was well not a very good parallel parker when I started and dented my fenders making my celica well ugly.. Im slowly making it better I just put eibach lowering springs in and now im gonna start on body work. I called junk yards all around chicago area and they havent had 6th gen celicas in awhile. So whats my best option for my fenders? Is it worth a shot to go to a body shop and get an estimate on hammering them out. Im just not really keen on spending $200 for a new fender on amazon.
Thanks in advance. This post has been edited by SiriusVirus: Apr 22, 2013 - 11:44 PM |

Or try searching car-part.com, the web portal to an auto recycling inventory software used across North America.

Shipping is brutal on these damn things. I was looking at aftermarket ones and almost costs the same in shipping. I'm gonna let some pay checks add up so I don't blow my wad. I'm hoping with warmer weather people will start parting out their celicas. I really just need a passenger fender driver side isn't nearly as bad as my passenger one. Stupid dent popper garbage didn't work just left a hot glue mess behind.

I am not sure of how much different as I have never had my side skirts off to tell, I just know they're not a direct bolt on match I see this all the time when looking for fenders ![]() This post has been edited by b22ri22an: May 1, 2013 - 6:10 AM -------------------- ![]() |

Lol get a fender from the junkyard. $35-$50 at a junkyard where you physically remove the part yourself. I guarantee there is a fender on a junked celica your color and undamaged within a 50 mile radius. You just got to resort to the phone book to find it.
Or buy one off a member. I paid $300( maybe it was $270? idk) for jdm fenders shipped to my door from 1500 miles away. |
