My car recently got hit by my dads car a couple days ago and the RH Fender needs to be replaced. I have been looking at non OEM fenders for a couple days and was wondering if anyone else has bought one of them before?

I havent bought any myself but i would say stay oem. the people around here who have different fenders never seem to fit right. Or you could go with the oem style fender but carbon fiber. I love the way those look.

-yup just what the people above me said, oem is pretty much gonna fit with out any modification, but aftermarket may require so modification to make it fit-

The metal usually isn't as strong either as factory.

Bleh, I guess you get what you pay for. Too bad they're no junkyards around that have a salvaged 2008 silver tc.

Also, about the metal not being that strong. My dad hit me in his driveway and jacked up my whole side. He was going about 4 miles an hour, so I could careless about the strength. I was just seeing if a non OEM fender would need refitting to put on. Seems like OEM is winning on this one.

An aftermarket metal fender may not require much but a CF or fiberglass one most likely need a lot of work.

OEM=no fitment problems

Finally went to the dealership and gave in. I bought it for 221 primed and ready to go. I brang the fender back to my garage, and noticed that my damaged fender was not OEM lol, so as I was putting on the oem one, the MFers altared where the bolts were supposed to go in the first place. Damn those aholes. Either way, I fixed it =)
