Junk Yard Success

The other day after work I noticed my driver side fender had a huge dent in it. I am not sure if it happened at work or at my apartment complex, but I knew that the evil doer was long gone. I did not feel like reshaping it again.
, and went to the junk yard to find a new one. After the second yard I went to I found a nice fender with a few scuffs that will easily buff out, and an OEM sunroof deflector and all for $40
.

The best part is that was only $4 of it.

I'd still not be happy with $40 at my junk yard... that haul would be $30 TOPS.

Its worth it for the hours it would take to reshape this.

possible i cant tell from pic if theres paint exchange but imo it looks more like a dent from a person or other type of less rigid object and kinda like it hit at a downward angle

If you hit it with hot air from a hair dryer then inverted a can of air till the CO frosted up that area of your fender that dent would probably pop out.
