where can i get just the fender painted bronzite and not too expensive?

or does anyone have a bronzite fender for sale? driver side.

The cheapest option is to get a shaker can from Lordco, and do it your self.

The can Tim got for his bronzite matched very well. Might want to get 2 cans

I am not really a paint person, but what would be the steps of painting it?

Strating with a blue fender....

hoping to end up with a perfectly matching bronzite fender!

LOL!

if you want a perfect matching bronzite fender, you should try to purchase a used bronzite fender. rattle canning it yourself won't look great, and having a shop paint it might not match great either depending on the condition of your hood. I'd recommend finding a used one.

Yes, I agree that would be the best option.

how do i take the fender off?

mirek · 04-09-2009, 02:31 PM

I think it is 2 screws on top, one behind the front bumper, and 1 in the wheel well. It's not too difficult, just remove all the screws.
