2G Where to Buy Fender?

[BLACK'98DSM]

I only found one website selling it and they want $258. That's ridiculous.

I know they don't make them anymore but surely somebody has one.

Thanks

Are you set on only OEM?

Is that price for a painted fender?

 

[Bud92gsx]

No its whatever color they pulled off the last car. Or maybe you can ask for your color, they might have it.

I have. They never get 2g's. And I do mean never.

Thanks for the link, Marty. Shipping for that is $85. That's $190 total. If I can't find anything else then I'll buy it.

Hard to find the Drivers side for some reason.

Indeed it is. Explain this:

Miller ships bro

Its always been that way with fenders, the drivers side seems to get hit more or whatever the reason, even Mitsubishi charged more for them new.

I let one go that was on a 97 Spyder that was smashed on the passenger side, just to get rid of the hulk.

What difference does air dam make? Ones with air dam are cheaper, I want to buy one. Would the one with air dam fit my car? If so, I will buy it.

I found this thread, which says the "air dam" version has holes pre-drilled for the side skirt fender caps that came with the Eclipse GS, GS-T, and GS-X:

There is this one on eBay without the side air dam. Price looks pretty good? Not sure condition or quality because there is no picture.. Hope it helps though, good luck!

Here's the one I'm looking at:

Just ordered the fender from ChicagoAutoBodyParts. Subtotal was $125

Thanks guys!

So it's been 6 days since I ordered this fender. They promised to have my tracking information in 5 days or less. I have received no tracking info. I tried to call customer service to see if they could give me a tracking number, or at least tell me who the carrier is. But all I got was "Hold on while I redirect you..."-- And then she hung up. I then sent an email to customer service nicely asking for some tracking info and provided my order number and other info. Still no response.

It's still to early to come to assumptions, but I am concerned. I will update this soon, hopefully with good news (Holy Mind)

This morning I received an email from Pull-A-Part saying that they just got a '97 Eclipse in stock. So if this order doesn't go through I will just go snatch that fender for $41.

Back to update a forgotten about thread, since another member brought up the topic. I received my order from CABP (Chicago Auto Body Parts) a little while after making the post. I can't remember how long it took but I got it, and it was a NEW OEM unit. Very rare IMO. And it was in perfect condition after unboxing/unwrapping. The listing I purchased, unfortunately, is no longer available. And even more unfortunately I sold the one I purchased to a fellow member of the site - but it got totally destroyed by UPS

UPS destroyed a gem.

Long story short, I recently parted ways with a NEW driver side fender for 2GB with door caps. It's been wrapped up and mint since 2007. I unwrapped it to check condition before selling. These have been discontinued for a while. A member on this site purchased it, so I called to UPS to see what...

If anyone knows where to buy a new one nowadays, let us know. They were nearly dried up back then so I'm sure now will be "fun". They may be stuck to a used one or a fiberglass aftermarket one.
