    Hello Forum,

    My 2008 needs some repairs to the right fender and front bumper. I think they might just need to be repaired / smoothed out instead of a total replacement and I'm seeking your opinions on the parts in the attached pictures.

    Also, does anyone have suggestions on where I could get a right fender and front bumper for a good price?

    Thank You;

    If you want it fixed, you would need to replace the fender. There should be plenty of used fenders available, possibly in the same color as your car.

    the bumper could use a good polish, it might make the marks lighter. You can probably repair that fairly cheap if you buy color matched spray paint online and some clear coat. Wont' be perfect but it'll look decent.

    It's silver. I think at least half of Gen2 prii are silver.

    Last week I had 3 silver Gen2 in at the same time.

    Should be lots of good silver body parts at the auto recyclers.
