So I somehow damaged my rear passenger side fender and I need some fiberglass experienced help or another fender. I've been searching the yards for fenders to no avail and its getting frusterating driving my dually with a big @ss hole in the fender. Have any ideas or does anyone have enough experience to fix the hole?

looks like its been repaired before..

go to home depot, get some glass and resin, read the directions, dive in.

its not hard, its a 15 minute job.

but then there is body work.

fix hole first then find a buddy who can bondo and fix it

I would tackle it myself, but the problem is that body line. I think I would only make it worse if I attempted to fix it myself. Just sucks its right at the body line.

Well I def. dont need the bed, nor do I have a place for it, but if your willing to part with just the fender, I'd pay $50.

I'd pay $300 to get it fixed actually. Thats a pretty fair price for that work for sure. Just have to find a doner fender.

I'll be honest with you. I love to do fiberglass work & do a lot of it, but that one's going to be a hard one.
Me, I'd look for a used one , which would be mission impossible, or if GM still sells them I'd buy a new one.
Hey there's also nothing wrong with getting somebody like liljlowrider to fix it, but I'm like him I wouldn't do it for any less the $300 for what's involved because your basically building everything from scratch. It can be done but it will be time consuming!
