Front Fender Replacement '99 Nissan Sentra - Body work video

2014-02-20
okay so right now we're gonna replace a front fender on a Nissan Sentra you can see that this one is just you know completely bent off so I had a new vendor right here oddly enough so we can see where those screw holes are so you can see there's some mounting holes the front and then along the top and along that bottom side I'm just gonna go through and unscrew all the holes on this fender here you can see the screw holes here they're in there then pop the new one back into place and there's one inside the door right here as well as I think there's another one down there at the bottom but this one's been broken off and there's another one right inside here on the bumper on this little slot it just goes through there so quick as I'd know if you plan on getting yours painted there's a good chance that the paint shop will want if this before you mount it on your car so they can paint the inside edge of it because with their paint gun once it's mounted it won't grab the inside edge and you might have some black marks you know showing eventually so this one I'm not going to get painted we're just going to leave it black but then once they've painted the inside you mount it and they could blend it with the car to match better because paint fades over time and it's not the same color now as it was stock you know ten years ago but since I'm just leaving this one black we're not going to have it painted at all it's already coated so it's not going to rust or anything and here you can see on the original piece what I was talking about with that painting the inside edges first before you put it on doing what they did at the factory anyway so there's a bunch of little plastic bits on this that you can transfer over to the new one if you want a lot of work it's not going to hold the bumper in place a lot of this is broken though so I'm just going to have to get some other kind of fasteners to just you know tighten the bumper onto the main metal part but I'm ready to put the other fender in place then by opening the door all the way I had enough room to slide that in and now I just need to screw it all back down again getting those three screws along the top two screws down by the end and then the one screw on the inside of this bumper right here and then I'm gonna have to find some new fastener because this has been ripped through gonna find a new fastener to tighten these two things together and we should be set down here along the bottom there is a nether bolt right here this was a little bit bin so I had to hit it a couple times with a hammer to straighten it out and then get that screw in it was pretty solid I'll link the part for the fender in the video description below you can get them for pretty much any vehicle on Amazon so check there and then feel free to price-match for this connection right here I just use an extra bolt locking washer and not that I had laying around so I turned out pretty good and everything's back on this part right here is actually pretty cheap got it off Amazon flex sixty or seventy bucks and all the fenders are pretty much the same no matter what vehicle you're working on so any questions make sure to leave in the comments below don't forget to like if this video helped you and don't forget to subscribe thanks for watching
