So, I had a few bumps in my right fender, and some guy offered to fix it. He did a decent job, but he had to apply this substance onto the area he fixed since he had to poke some holes in it. So he covered up the holes, and this is what it looks like now. So now my question is : How do I paint it back to it's original color?

 

wow that is a shitty job of bondo'ing.... i would, if you can, sand that down and take it to macco or someone if you are just doing one fender and want it done cheap.... if you want it done right, it will cost a few nickels

 

how many nickels for spot painting?

 

wow. I hope A) you didn't pay him for that, and B) he's not a pro. They're prolly gonna wanna paint the whole fender, I'm guessin a coupla hundred bucks

 

There is no such thing as spot painting, they have to "blend" it to the rest of the paint. In other words they will paint an area 3-4X the size of the area he repaired. Its gonna cost you close to $1,000 to be done right.

 

any other help and tips would be greatly appreciated so my baby can get fixed.

 

Ugh.. You can go to NAPA autoparts or Pep Boys or somewhere that carries dupli color paint, match the paint you need and try to paint it yourself. You still need to sand down the area until its smooth enough to paint. Hit it with a few coats of primer, a few coats of paint, and follow it up with a few of clear.
Its gonna look like **** though.....

 

how about replacing the right fender?

 

Possible, won't be much cheaper though. www.shokan.com is the place you want to go for that.

 

is it possible to manually take out the right fender and put in a new one, or does it take some equipment to do that? oh yea, and thanks guys. I'm going to go to a few auto shops tomorrow and find the prices. I need this fixed badly so my strict parents don't kill me.
