Unhappy anyplace make replacement fenders?

OK, I kinda fubared the front of my new spg. Did it pretty bad. Is there any place that makes replacement fenders. I did find on the saabsite but 100 bones for shipping is a little much. I may have to pay it but Im hoping I can find some a little cheaper.



I hate people who dont know how to secure a ladder in the back of their truck.

One option may be to try one of the local wrecking yards. I've had great success at finding Saab parts there, especially at the self serve yards...

Just a thought...

The problem with that is the fenders are welded and bolted on. Unles you bring a torch in there I dont know.

You dont cut the spot welds you drill them out. I have been thinking of doing that. But just dont want to end up with taking the time to drill out all the spot welds and then find its fairly rusted in the hidden areas.
