I hope this is posted in the right area. I ordered a replacement driver-side fender for my '98 GT. Of course, the box arrived all beat up. The edge where the corner of the fender meets the windshield is bent. It's not all messed up but where the fender come to what I would call a "point" is bent down. Sorry I don't have any pict but I can get some tonight. This is a repro fender. From what I described, does this sound like something that is worth the cost to fix or should I just get another one?

If its just a small bend without a crease then it should be easy to fix but if it's creased then I would get another one.

the fender probably cost around 125, it's not worth the time of waiting to send it back and fighting the shipping and sellers, just fix it. i work in a body shop and trust me the next one you get may be worse.

Thanks. I'll try to post a picture. I know trying to diagnos this without it is kind of asking a lot. I was mad when it arrived damaged but, pleased when my Cervini's Cobra R hood arrived in perfect shape!
