    A bat between the fender and tire works just fine, make sure to heat the paint up though.

    I think autogrip is selling a red fender for your car a few threads down in the marketplace. Sucks though, good luck.

    yeah if you had any swap/clutch/tranny/axle/suspension work... most likely they left the nut loose or forgot to put the cotter pin back in... but yeah just be glad you were moving slow... and hopefully whoever fucced it up will get you another fender...

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    that was a cold statement meant for me. I told you and your father that i do not take out the lower ball joints to take the axles out when doing a clutch job. I always take out the upper part to take out the axles. its easier. Please, if you want to blame someone, then say out the name. I am not afraid of it, as i have already told you about it. I have done many clutch jobs for alot of IA folks.

    Yeah, no need to take the lower out to do a clutch job...

    But sucks that happened, I'd have a wheel fall off...tire place didn't tighten the lugs, just hand tight, wheel came off doing about 30mph...OUCH..
