I bought my 99 3.8 in Jan. I have been fixing items here and there. My next project is to fix the right rear quarter. Someone must have backed into or got hit but there is a puncture in the quater where the molding is suppose to be. The junk yard wants to sell me the whole fender but I don't want to pay that. Does anyone have a fender that might be damaged in another section but good where i would need it? Is there another good repair method.

 

How big is the puncture? It's pretty easy to MIG weld the hole shut and smooth it out.

 

a body shop should be able to patch it pretty cheep.

 

Slap up a picture and let us take a look.

 

Here are a few pics.

 

pics are no good

 

Sneaky backdoor approach.......
Ouch, a little "can opener" action there eh?

 

ouch... id defiantly get a whole fender, the little step in the lip is going to be hard to reproduce. plus you need both sides of the wheel.

 

I will start looking for a fender then. I think I can get one for about $300.

What did I do wrong when I added the pic? I have them on flicker. What is the better way?

 

For the url, you want to have an [IMG] before http, and [/IMG] after jpg.
For whatever reason, the picture elements showed the link had <img src=" at the very beginning, before the http, and http://" alt="" border="0"> after the jpg at the end. Delete those extra codes and add the IMG code front & back and then it displays.
I haven't messed with flickr. See if they have an IMG code you can copy & paste.
