Where can I get a GM replacement fender cheap!!!!

I've looked everywhere for a used fender for a 91-92 Camaro with no luck. I have decided to stay away from an aftermarket fender and go with GM. I don't want to wait forever to find a used fender and the NEW GM fenders that I've seen for sale are really expensive. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get the best price on a new GM fender??

Last time I was looking at a fender at a dealership it was 400 something dollars. I just got a aftermarket fender for $64.95 looks just as good and you can save yourself a bundle.

You could try www.gmpartsdirect.com

But what you save on the price of the part you may end up paying back in shipping.

Replacement parts with GM and Cheap can not be used in the same sentence.

Check e-bay. I got a Formula hood for 55 dollars

It was in perfect condition. All I had to do was paint it red.

I got a certifit one for $40 and put it on today. It fit great and they are (supposed to be) CAPA certified, according to my buddy. The metal is a little thinner than the GM fender, but I needed one. On the other hand, it is lighter and still fits great and made my car look like a camaro again. I have also had one on the other side for a couple years and have had no problems. Oh, and it was made in Taiwan.

Go to http://www.certifit.com to get one.
