Just put on a new fender (pictures!)

[LowR3V'in]

This was my old fender


Here's when I just slaped it on without bolting it down (Doesn't fit for some reason)


Here you can see that the bottom of the fender didn't match up right so I had to use a hammer on the acctual body :shock:


The vailence didn't match up to the fender, but I'll pound on that laters


After some more beating, it turned out really good; I can stand to look at my car's right side again! :D.
The only thing I wished it had was that blue pin-stripe :(


I had to bend and pound untill everything lined up perfectly :D


All I need is that chrome side bumper and it's all gravy :o

This is how the old fender looked

I'd be more concerned about the wear pattern of your tires than the fender. Do you have positive camber?

[LowR3V'in]

No, that wheel used to be on the drivers rear.. :oops:
I have more of the "good" camber :D

Nice work. Where did you get the rubber strip of the fender that mates to the body? It's supposed to be there to act as a sealant I believe.

Or did you reuse the old one?

[LowR3V'in]

Are you talking about the missing molding?
That broke off when my tyre poped on the freeway. :D

I'll go to the yard tomarrow and pocket one 8)

Here's just some of the e30 I saw there. (There were close to 15 at the place)

EDIT:
Oh! Your talking about the bumper cover!
Yeah, I just reused it..
It still isn't lined up right as you can see from the last picture, but I'll MAKE it work :twisted:

BTW: I wieghed the fender and it was 7lbs exactly.

Aftermarket or OEM fender? Aftermarket tend to be crappy with alignment.

[Court M3]

along the top of the fender where the 8mm screws are there is a rubber like substance that is there that is what I was talking about

It's most likey OEM.
Is there a way to check?


Court M3
the stuff will never stick again; it's a one time use only :)
I might go back and use some glue if I'm really bored, but they're no reason for me to do it.

Should have a OEM sticker on top like the one that had the VIN number listed on the original.
