The person who had my Maxima before me rear-ended someone some time ago. It has a new/used hood but the driver's side fender is folded in half. What I really need are: a fender, headlight, cornering light, and the trim. My goal is as cheap as possible while avoiding the salvage yards.

 

The only place your going to get this stuff cheap is a salvage yard. Your other choice is to go here: http://www.autobodypartsonline.com/c...10101104736.d4

They have most of the parts you need. If that isn't cheap enough, look for a decent salvage yard, or pull-a-part.

Also try the links section of the Second Generation Nissan Maxima Group on yahoo. Here is the link:

There is a link there to a page that has pictures of what happen to my car when I got cutoff on the freeway at 70mph, spunned, and bashed against a concrete barrier.

The first link didnt work. Thanks though.

The cheapest fender I have found (new) is $108, not too bad at all. I also found a few headlights on e-bay but need to save a little money first (I'm broke from Christmas).

 

One thing I might point out, the front end body work is different between the 85-86 models and the 87-88 models. Be sure you got the right ones. I know the one of the guys selling headlights on ebay said they fit on 85-88 when in reality they only fit 85-86. Where did you find the fender at? I want to see if I can get a passenger side fender for my 86, 108 new isn't bad.

Well I happen to have a friend that owns his own body shop. I found the fender in one of his rebuilder books, then he gets a 10% discount off the list price bringing it down to $108. All the fenders I have found on the internet sites are all $115 for passenger side and $113 for drivers.
