so i was doing 35 on a narrow road tonight in the rain, and a family of deer ran into the road, i attempted to avoid them, which i did successfully. but to avoid them i lost control and ran up a curb and hit a pole. damage was to the front bumper, which i can mask damage to; and the passenger side fender. i am looking to get this fixed without my parents knowing, so if anyone knows a junkyard in the nj with a white w124 passenger fender, please tell me. or if they know a place with any color fender and a place to paint it for cheap. im really unhappy about this and any help would be appreciated.

Well, you have my sympathy.

Firstly, no venison on the table this weekend but, worse than that, the Pole might sue.

You'll know better next time.

How bad is the damage on the fender...on a scale from 1-10?

crr1612

i gave it an 8, it was pushed back so as to be scraping against the wheel

fess up to your Dad,he's gonna find out any how and he will respect you more for owning up to it.

heh, i did that already it wasnt pretty. i figured if i coudlnt get it fixed in one day i would have to. either way, will a bumper and fender from another w124 fit on a 300ce? im still lookin for the parts. i can find em, but if they are in white i can avoid paying for paint, which would be fantastic.

Ya, as far as I know, you can take any 300/400e bumper and just swap.

whats about fender?

Saijin_Naib

300ce fender same as 300e/400 in the front. Id go for the Diesel fenders, they have vents

crr1612

word, thanks man im still shopping around for now tho, it would be so much easier if i could find it in white

Have you tried www.adsitco.com?
They are based in Jersey, maybe you could do local pick-up and save shipping?

well, got a bumper cover and fender for $100. i mounted everything and i guess im gonna have to have a body shop align it all for me. its all just a bit off. only problem is that i got a cream colored fender with a pin stripe. i got quoted $250 at maaco to spot paint it. so i figure id try ordering from paintscratch.com, itll cost under $50 to order what i need. anyone have any experience with the at home touchup? and how can i remove the pinstripe? ill try and get some pics up and once again i appreciate all help
