I need to change my right front fender. It doesn't look complicated, but perhaps it requires tools I don't have. Does anyone know where I can get instructions of how to remove and replace it?

thanks

Jeffrimerman:

Removal of the bumper cover and partial removal of the fender liner may be required.

Typical of most Honda fenders, it involves about four-to-five bolts on the topside, where it attaches to the inner wheelhouse, two-to-three bolts at the front, one-two bolts inside the door, and one-two bolts at the bottom, where it attaches to/near the rocker panel. A 10mm socket and/or wrench should do the trick.

Thanks Wardenr,

I will just have it painted white and save some money and do it myself. I've done most work on my cars, so this should be too bad. If I had the stock white paint I would do that myself, but that probably needs to be baked on.

A painter said it needs to be on the car first so he can match it to the doors and hood. So I can do that first then and then take it somewhere.

I HAVE painted fenders prior to installation. BEST that you install the fender prior to having it refinished...to ensure proper fit and alignment against the body panels/parts. Moreover, installing a painted fender is tricky business, as you're often prone to scratch it.
