How Easy Is It to Install....

I guess this is more aimed towards <<<<Craig>>>> or whomever. My right fender was damaged on a terrible terrible day back in oct. I just recieved my new factory fender and I was wondering if it's DIY. (Just to put it on) I look on the new fender and i see about 8-12 holes for screws...Is that all i have to do?? What about the wheel well stuff right about the tire. (black plastic) i think. Holla at me if you can help me out. peace

yup.. easy stuff.. remove all the screws on the plastic wheel well cover and then go for the screws on the back edge of the fender and the bumper lip. there's one or two at the bottom, then the 6 or so across the top.

just be very careful on the ones between the fender and door not to mess up the door. best thing I've found there is to put a piece of leather or vinyl behind it so that the tools won't rub the paint on the door.

be VERY careful handling the fender, as they have a tendency to bend and crease at about 45 deg angle from the wheel well toward the back. if you're careful in handling it and don't twist it while you're doing anything, you'll be fine.

I have no experience with body work so I can't help you out much here, but just from looking at the fender and what Matt said, it seems fairly simple
