When I first acquired my Sky Redline, I managed to discover very early just how LOW these cars actually are. Day 1 of ownership, a speed bump in Vegas impacted the driver’s side fender and destroyed the bottom. In this episode, I lay out the steps to successfully reconstruct the fender by repairing all of the cracks. The process is simple but time-consuming and anyone with some basic hand tools should be able to repair one of these fenders. You will need to have the fender refinished and I was very fortunate to have my technical expert coworker, Chris Harsh, paint my fender while I was travelling on business. I truly appreciate you Chris, Thank You!
Please understand that these fenders “resemble” fiberglass but are NOT FIBERGLASS. They are made from something called Sheet Molded Compound (SMC) and require unique repair methods to ensure a durable repair. Follow along and you can see just how simple these are to repair, when you are not able to find a replacement.
