    Hello,
    So the other day I really messed up my fenders on the passenger side. I think I will need to replace the passenger side front/rear fenders. I would like to get color matched parts. Does anyone know of where I can find these? I did a quick search, but only found primed versions.

    thanks,
    Sam, S

    you're going to have to get a body shop to paint them for you no matter which way you go.

    Ya, unfortunately Toyota doesn't sell them pre-painted (as they do with some parts...). Best bet is to buy 'em, then take them to the shop, and have them sprayed. Keep in mind, you'll likely need to replace many of the clips that hold them to the fender, as they break very easily when removing the flares.

    Good idea.
    The back right fender is dented in pretty badly. I'm thinking maybe just chop part of it out and build a high clearance bumper.
