**** dude that sucks!

From what I can see it's only the fender and not the door.

You're probably looking at 600+ to fix that. I wouldn't go through insurance.

wow buddy! THat's HUGEEEEEEEE!!!!

Does your door still open properly??? I don't know if it'd be cheaper just to replace the entire driver side front fender or try and bang it back out... I would imagine it'd be cheaper to replace the entire thing.. besides... it would look cleaner that way.. but you'd have to get it repainted.

That is really too bad. Unfair!

Hope it is a quick fix for you.

I literally 'gasped' when I saw the pic. I was expecting a ding! What a complete loser the person must be. Can't drive and an *******. Oh well, think of the Kharma ***-kickin' the person is gonna get in the future. When you calm down, have a smile at that.

Good luck...

Stupid idiots, whoever did that!

I'm curious though, how does somebody ram your car with their vehicle and damage just the fender but not the door? It's as if something decided to kick in your fender!

Well, good luck getting your fender fixed and I hope it isn't too much of a hassle for you....

to BPBSI : no it wasnt' a custome paint, it came with the car... maybe its the lighting condition that altered it a bit...

yea... the door still opens properly...


anyone know where i can get a fender like that?? coz i know dealers will charge an arm for a fender.......

and anyone know a place that will do nice paint job for good price?? i want it to be good so the paint don't fade after a few years....

I would ask around the accord forums and see if anyone parting out or perhaps they got hook ups; then get it painted and slapped on. My Ek fender cost me 90 bucks...100 to paint and about 50 bux to mount.....but you can prolly mount it yourself and save some loot.

yeah luckily it wasn't the door...else you would've had to replace that and get the hinge re-aligned

Good luck! and too hell with those inconsiderate bastards!

That's how my car was when mine got hit awhile back. Not as deep as yours though. They were able to pop out the panel so it wouldn't damage the door (opening & closing) but it cost me about 500 to fix I didnt bother going through insurance.

The entire problem is that you parked at Pac Mall... Cripes, it was prolly some loaded SUV that didn't even feel it. I always avoid parking at Pac Mall if possible.

Best of luck bro. That really hurts seeing that :cry:

And yea, it might be easier to get the front fender replaced.

Were you parked in that same spot? If yes, it was because of that.

I've seen it myself, as well as others with me, that people don't look when they are backiing out of other spots.

This is one of the biggest reasons why I don't park on the ends.

Sorry to hear what happened though.

As for the repair.....the fender would cost between $100 - $200....if you find the same colour.....no extra cost......if it's a different colour, an extra $100 - $150 to paint it. If you are handy with tools, you can install it yourself. It's not that hard.
