      Just get another fender and have it painted to match. Fenders are cheap, and easy to swap.

        sounds like getting a new fender would be easier for you

            If you want to save some money I would just wait around until you find a used fender of your same color and just swap it out. Like said earlier its a pretty easy swap. I did mine the other day. Getting a new one and getting it paint matched may cost you upwards to $300+.

            There is a alpine white front left fender in my area if thats your color (and dented fender).

            Good luck

                Its off an 86 325. I may be wrong but isn't your 1989 alpine white II ?

                Maybe the color difference is so subtle it doesn't matter.

                      If he doesn't buy it, I might. I don't care if it doesn't match perfectly until this summer.

                            I checked it out and it has a dent on it already :(

                            Keep looking though. You will save some money with some patience.

                            Good luck
