I found Persing Auto on eBay has amazing feedback and they sell pre-painted parts. Unfortunately, eBay only shows auctions 30 days back, and since there is about a 20-25 day lead time on these parts, I can't contact previous buyers to ask if they were happy.

I need a Driver Side Front Fender for my 1997 Accord EX. I see that the fender alone is ~$100, and they are selling it pre-painted to whatever color you want (MFG paint color #) for ~$200 shipped!

That semms like a really good deal to me. I know that the paint won't match exactly, but I am hoping it would be close enough. The car has 190k on it, so it isn't exactly a show car anyway.

What do you guys think?
Here is the "auction": http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-P...03816192QQrdZ1

 

Ive gotten both my front and rear bumpers off of them, they are excellent. They over-package it and ship fast, and I have not any fitting problems or anything with their bumpers.

 

What color is the car??

 

G-83P-3
Eucalyptus Green (dark green, metallic sparkle)

 

Good luck with it matching, you've got a better chance than if it we're white.

 

nah he's got a chance. cause the guy will ask him to send the paint code to him so he can buy hte paint and match it. i almost did this as well. 211shipped. thats a steal but i also have a pin stripe which i am in the process of removing but those guys at pershing auto are nice i talked with him and he was very helpfull, but i decided to go oem so i found a used fender from a recked accord.
