Wanted: Silver Fender (right side) / got keyed :(
Looking for clk320 front right side fender panel in silver
Some jack *** keyed my fender today (deep line about 8 inches). I figured it would be cheaper just to replace the panel if it was the same color.
Thanks.

It will be easier and more cost effective to just paint your fender and if the damage is close to the door blend into that. Are you planning on changing the fender or taking it to a shop to do it because they will be charging you to remove that fender and install the new one on top of the initial cost of the fender. Theres also a chance of it not matching your color exactly because it was on another car and may have been previously painted. I will check audatex tomorrow and pm you roughly what either or should cost you if you go to a shop.

Thanks! Yes, I was thinking it may not match up.. I called a friend who knows a good place in Los Angeles but he said it may cost around $300-400 to paint. Its right on the lip, it could be hidden with fender trip but thats so 1992, lol.
