LOL what was there would of probably been an easier fix than what this guy did to your car! I really hope you didnt pay for that cuz it is ****. No offense. what you need to do is sand down the whole fender blend all that crap *** bondo and an OK way is just paint the fender what ever your paint color is, (look in the trunk in the spare tire are) and get tat paint code from a auto paint place, you will need primer paint and clearcoat. if you do just the fender tho it will be a different color than the door and hood, thats called blending when you paint part of those to blend the old with new, your car has sat in the sun 10 years and the color will be different no matter what! On a side note if you lived by me you could just take it to our shop and get a reasonable deal!!

Don't quote me on this but i think the fender is pinch welded to the body on the B6, so you would need to cut them off and weld the new/used one on. The easiest thing to do is hand it over to a good body shop and let them bend you over.
