    Fender Repair

    For those of you interested i repaired my lower fender yesterday.

    This is what can be hiding behind your S rocker trim, and some 80's resale red paint.

    The gaps are good, and this is starting to look better than i expected after i had to replace both inner outer rockers, jack point, the fender support, bottom of the A pillar, and not to mention the bottom of the longitudinal

    Sounds like a lot of work. Can you show some photos of what you repaired on the bottom?

    Thanks for sharing.

    Only the inner and outer were affected. mainly from the panel being replaced and the drain holes at the base of the rocker sealed with seam sealer, including the base of the A - pillar.

    Rear end is now complete things left to do, small patches on the opposite fender including the mounting flange, and the suspension pan and support.
