Fender Repair

We’ve all heard the term “fender bender” before but how many people know what the fender actually is? Or the role it plays in keeping you safe? It’s common for your vehicle to sustain fender damage in a collision, particularly rear-end collisions, so it’s vital to repair or replace it as soon as possible following an accident. Trust your vehicle’s fender to the experts at RF Collision to take care of it for you.

Your vehicle’s fender is the curved panel that extends from the bumper to the door, framing the wheel and wheel wells. The fender keeps dirt, sand, mud, rocks, and other debris being thrown in the air by the tires from damaging your vehicle’s paint, braking system, engine compartment, or other parts of the vehicle. When fenders become damaged, whether from an accident with another vehicle or a rogue shopping cart in the parking lot, it’s harder for them to keep debris away and could cause even worse issues in the future.

Depending on the type of damage your fender has incurred, we can either repair or replace it. Repairing the fender is the faster and cheaper option, perfect for minor cosmetic dents or scratches. As long as the structural integrity of your vehicle hasn’t been compromised, we can pop a dent out of the fender or fill in a scratch with ease. We can even remove small, surface level rust that hasn’t affected the structure to keep the fender looking as good as new.

When the fender has been damaged, warped, or cracked to the point of affecting the vehicle’s structural integrity, a replacement becomes necessary. Our experienced techs will examine the fender’s damage to determine if replacement is necessary. If it is, they’ll carefully remove the damaged fender, install and align the new one, and then use our computerized paint-matching system to restore your vehicle’s original color.
