Title: Looking for passenger-side fender with cornering lamp cutout
Post by: Masejoer on October 22, 2014, 11:49:32 PM
Going to finally get my damaged fender replaced. I have a replacement for the drivers side, with cutout. Looking for a matching fender for the passenger side. These things are pretty light, so I figure shipping won't be too bad. Let me know if you guys have anything around!

I have a good one from an 87 TC. Although the weight on these things is not that much, the shipping companies use a "dimensional weight" formula for large packages. By the time it gets to you, the total cost is probably going to be around $150. I sold one to a member here in March and shipped it to Maine from Virginia via Greyhound bus lines, which was the least expensive by far, and that shipping still was about $78. If you are interested, send me your address and I can get a quote. Another trouble with the Greyhound shipping is that both of us have to go to the bus station. That is about a 1 1/2 hour round trip for me.  The photo is of the actual fender that I have but the trim piece around the cornering light is no longer attached.

May take you up on that, but that is a far way to travel. Anyone else either closer to the west coast, or closer to a shipping location?

Craigslist over here has been pretty barren of cars being parted out. There are a few running vehicles around $1k, but nothing being parted out.

If you can find an '87/'88 fender close, but without the light hole, no big deal. Just grab a cutoff wheel and cut the hole. That's what I did. Then I installed the "no light" trim.

The perfectionist part of my brain can't do that. I must have lights that fit perfectly, then modify it to put 3,000 lumens out the side.

Still looking for a fender. I'm not seeing anything locally. I'd like to swap my fenders out in the first half of this year, and get some new paint onto the car.

I'm hoping for someone else that doesn't have to go as far to ship it off ;) I don't want to put anyone out of their way on this thing.

My work takes me on a fairly regular basis in the area of the Greyhound stop where it would need to ship from. Heck, boxing it up is the bigger hassle!
