I had a little accident on my 02' Z28 and the right rear fender is in pretty bad shape. can you just buy the fender by itself or do you have to buy the whole rear quarter panel as a whole? And either way does anyone know where to look on the web for either I am having problems finding any at all for that year.

Hm ... shouldn't anything 98 and up (or even any 4th gen?) fit?
Dino should be able to get one for you ... :)

Speaking from experience , you have to buy the whole panel and have it shipped over here or go to your GM-Opel dealer and get raped and sodomized. Or go through AAFES as a special order.

Are you able to pull your spare tire out with no problem?

Well I ship it back to the states in a couple of weeks but I just wanted to know some good websites to get one from. the spare tire wasnt in the car at the time so thats why I think there was so much damage. But the shiping company says they have no problem as long as there is nothing loose on the car that will fall off and as long as it runs. So it is all good just wanted a head start for when I PCS to California.

Chris you are probably lucky that the tire was out . With the tire in there you have literally no crumple zone.
I had mine in and when it hit it pushed it into the frame . Then again it may have been a good thing that it was in there.

Oh that was YOUR car? I saw it on WAAF, that look like it hurt. It looks like it took a good lick under the door as well. Not sure if that is going to come out. Good luck.

So the question still stands. Anyone have a website where I could purchase a new fender (quarterpanel) from? I have been looking and can find all the other parts I need, except that one.

Fixing it in the States should be a lot cheaper than over here ...

In Germany that would be damn near a totalschaden. But I think Schrottmeister Ludolf could take care of that.
