I can pull the front end of the car in about 5 mins. And I can take an entire car completly apart in about 30 mins. There are no surprises, it is very simply the fender is held on by plastic push clips

Hi, Bob Here is the site showing the nose panel replacement. www.fq101.co.uk/451front.asp Don't spend too much time at this site. The nose is so easy, you could end up taking the whole car apart!

Change the fender yourself, it's an easy repair. I hit a truck tire tread at 80mph and broke the lower spoiler and inner core support. It was covered under my insurance. The core support also holds the radiator and I was taking the Smart on ...

Fender replacement

Anybody had to deal with a front fender replacement yet? I hit a BIG dog two days ago and it broke my left front fender. I ordered a fender for $180.00 from the dealer in Birmingham, AL. Wondering if I should attempt to replace or take to body shop? any comments welcomed. Thanks
